Adversarial training has gained great popularity as one of the most effective defenses for deep neural networks against adversarial perturbations on data points. Consequently, research interests have grown in understanding the convergence and robustness of adversarial training. This paper considers the min-max game of adversarial training by alternating stochastic gradient descent. It approximates the training process with a continuous-time stochastic-differential-equation (SDE). In particular, the error bound and convergence analysis is established. This SDE framework allows direct comparison between adversarial training and stochastic gradient descent; and confirms analytically the robustness of adversarial training from a (new) gradient-flow viewpoint. This analysis is then corroborated via numerical studies. To demonstrate the versatility of this SDE framework for algorithm design and parameter tuning, a stochastic control problem is formulated for learning rate adjustment, where the advantage of adaptive learning rate over fixed learning rate in terms of training loss is demonstrated through numerical experiments.

Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have enjoyed tremendous empirical successes, and research interest in the theoretical understanding of GANs training process is rapidly growing, especially for its evolution and convergence analysis. This paper establishes approximations, with precise error bound analysis, for the training of GANs under stochastic gradient algorithms (SGAs). The approximations are in the form of coupled stochastic differential equations (SDEs). The analysis of the SDEs and the associated invariant measures yields conditions for the convergence of GANs training. Further analysis of the invariant measure for the coupled SDEs gives rise to a fluctuation-dissipation relations (FDRs) for GANs, revealing the trade-off of the loss landscape between the generator and the discriminator and providing guidance for learning rate scheduling.

Adversarial training is one of the most effective approaches defending against adversarial examples for deep learning models. Unlike other defense strategies, adversarial training aims to promote the robustness of models intrinsically. During the las t few years, adversarial training has been studied and discussed from various aspects. A variety of improvements and developments of adversarial training are proposed, which were, however, neglected in existing surveys. For the first time in this survey, we systematically review the recent progress on adversarial training for adversarial robustness with a novel taxonomy. Then we discuss the generalization problems in adversarial training from three perspectives. Finally, we highlight the challenges which are not fully tackled and present potential future directions.
We analyze the properties of adversarial training for learning adversarially robust halfspaces in the presence of agnostic label noise. Denoting $mathsf{OPT}_{p,r}$ as the best robust classification error achieved by a halfspace that is robust to per turbations of $ell_{p}$ balls of radius $r$, we show that adversarial training on the standard binary cross-entropy loss yields adversarially robust halfspaces up to (robust) classification error $tilde O(sqrt{mathsf{OPT}_{2,r}})$ for $p=2$, and $tilde O(d^{1/4} sqrt{mathsf{OPT}_{infty, r}} + d^{1/2} mathsf{OPT}_{infty,r})$ when $p=infty$. Our results hold for distributions satisfying anti-concentration properties enjoyed by log-concave isotropic distributions among others. We additionally show that if one instead uses a nonconvex sigmoidal loss, adversarial training yields halfspaces with an improved robust classification error of $O(mathsf{OPT}_{2,r})$ for $p=2$, and $O(d^{1/4}mathsf{OPT}_{infty, r})$ when $p=infty$. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to show that adversarial training provably yields robust classifiers in the presence of noise.
Adversarial training can considerably robustify deep neural networks to resist adversarial attacks. However, some works suggested that adversarial training might comprise the privacy-preserving and generalization abilities. This paper establishes and quantifies the privacy-robustness trade-off and generalization-robustness trade-off in adversarial training from both theoretical and empirical aspects. We first define a notion, {it robustified intensity} to measure the robustness of an adversarial training algorithm. This measure can be approximate empirically by an asymptotically consistent empirical estimator, {it empirical robustified intensity}. Based on the robustified intensity, we prove that (1) adversarial training is $(varepsilon, delta)$-differentially private, where the magnitude of the differential privacy has a positive correlation with the robustified intensity; and (2) the generalization error of adversarial training can be upper bounded by an $mathcal O(sqrt{log N}/N)$ on-average bound and an $mathcal O(1/sqrt{N})$ high-probability bound, both of which have positive correlations with the robustified intensity. Additionally, our generalization bounds do not explicitly rely on the parameter size which would be prohibitively large in deep learning. Systematic experiments on standard datasets, CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100, are in full agreement with our theories. The source code package is available at url{https://github.com/fshp971/RPG}.

Deep model compression has been extensively studied, and state-of-the-art methods can now achieve high compression ratios with minimal accuracy loss. This paper studies model compression through a different lens: could we compress models without hurt ing their robustness to adversarial attacks, in addition to maintaining accuracy? Previous literature suggested that the goals of robustness and compactness might sometimes contradict. We propose a novel Adversarially Trained Model Compression (ATMC) framework. ATMC constructs a unified constrained optimization formulation, where existing compression means (pruning, factorization, quantization) are all integrated into the constraints. An efficient algorithm is then developed. An extensive group of experiments are presented, demonstrating that ATMC obtains remarkably more favorable trade-off among model size, accuracy and robustness, over currently available alternatives in various settings. The codes are publicly available at: https://github.com/shupenggui/ATMC.
