The vulnerability of deep neural networks to adversarial examples, which are crafted maliciously by modifying the inputs with imperceptible perturbations to misled the network produce incorrect outputs, reveals the lack of robustness and poses security concerns. Previous works study the adversarial robustness of image classifiers on image level and use all the pixel information in an image indiscriminately, lacking of exploration of regions with different semantic meanings in the pixel space of an image. In this work, we fill this gap and explore the pixel space of the adversarial image by proposing an algorithm to looking for possible perturbations pixel by pixel in different regions of the segmented image. The extensive experimental results on CIFAR-10 and ImageNet verify that searching for the modified pixel in only some pixels of an image can successfully launch the one-pixel adversarial attacks without requiring all the pixels of the entire image, and there exist multiple vulnerable points scattered in different regions of an image. We also demonstrate that the adversarial robustness of different regions on the image varies with the amount of semantic information contained.

The vulnerability of deep neural networks (DNNs) to adversarial attack, which is an attack that can mislead state-of-the-art classifiers into making an incorrect classification with high confidence by deliberately perturbing the original inputs, rais es concerns about the robustness of DNNs to such attacks. Adversarial training, which is the main heuristic method for improving adversarial robustness and the first line of defense against adversarial attacks, requires many sample-by-sample calculations to increase training size and is usually insufficiently strong for an entire network. This paper provides a new perspective on the issue of adversarial robustness, one that shifts the focus from the network as a whole to the critical part of the region close to the decision boundary corresponding to a given class. From this perspective, we propose a method to generate a single but image-agnostic adversarial perturbation that carries the semantic information implying the directions to the fragile parts on the decision boundary and causes inputs to be misclassified as a specified target. We call the adversarial training based on such perturbations region adversarial training (RAT), which resembles classical adversarial training but is distinguished in that it reinforces the semantic information missing in the relevant regions. Experimental results on the MNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets show that this approach greatly improves adversarial robustness even using a very small dataset from the training data; moreover, it can defend against FGSM adversarial attacks that have a completely different pattern from the model seen during retraining.

Adversarial examples are inevitable on the road of pervasive applications of deep neural networks (DNN). Imperceptible perturbations applied on natural samples can lead DNN-based classifiers to output wrong prediction with fair confidence score. It i s increasingly important to obtain models with high robustness that are resistant to adversarial examples. In this paper, we survey recent advances in how to understand such intriguing property, i.e. adversarial robustness, from different perspectives. We give preliminary definitions on what adversarial attacks and robustness are. After that, we study frequently-used benchmarks and mention theoretically-proved bounds for adversarial robustness. We then provide an overview on analyzing correlations among adversarial robustness and other critical indicators of DNN models. Lastly, we introduce recent arguments on potential costs of adversarial training which have attracted wide attention from the research community.

Interpretability of deep neural networks (DNNs) is essential since it enables users to understand the overall strengths and weaknesses of the models, conveys an understanding of how the models will behave in the future, and how to diagnose and correc t potential problems. However, it is challenging to reason about what a DNN actually does due to its opaque or black-box nature. To address this issue, we propose a novel technique to improve the interpretability of DNNs by leveraging the rich semantic information embedded in human descriptions. By concentrating on the video captioning task, we first extract a set of semantically meaningful topics from the human descriptions that cover a wide range of visual concepts, and integrate them into the model with an interpretive loss. We then propose a prediction difference maximization algorithm to interpret the learned features of each neuron. Experimental results demonstrate its effectiveness in video captioning using the interpretable features, which can also be transferred to video action recognition. By clearly understanding the learned features, users can easily revise false predictions via a human-in-the-loop procedure.
One of the most prominent attributes of Neural Networks (NNs) constitutes their capability of learning to extract robust and descriptive features from high dimensional data, like images. Hence, such an ability renders their exploitation as feature ex tractors particularly frequent in an abundant of modern reasoning systems. Their application scope mainly includes complex cascade tasks, like multi-modal recognition and deep Reinforcement Learning (RL). However, NNs induce implicit biases that are difficult to avoid or to deal with and are not met in traditional image descriptors. Moreover, the lack of knowledge for describing the intra-layer properties -- and thus their general behavior -- restricts the further applicability of the extracted features. With the paper at hand, a novel way of visualizing and understanding the vector space before the NNs output layer is presented, aiming to enlighten the deep feature vectors properties under classification tasks. Main attention is paid to the nature of overfitting in the feature space and its adverse effect on further exploitation. We present the findings that can be derived from our models formulation, and we evaluate them on realistic recognition scenarios, proving its prominence by improving the obtained results.
With the tremendous advances in the architecture and scale of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) over the past few decades, they can easily reach or even exceed the performance of humans in certain tasks. However, a recently discovered shortcoming of CNNs is that they are vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Although the adversarial robustness of CNNs can be improved by adversarial training, there is a trade-off between standard accuracy and adversarial robustness. From the neural architecture perspective, this paper aims to improve the adversarial robustness of the backbone CNNs that have a satisfactory accuracy. Under a minimal computational overhead, the introduction of a dilation architecture is expected to be friendly with the standard performance of the backbone CNN while pursuing adversarial robustness. Theoretical analyses on the standard and adversarial error bounds naturally motivate the proposed neural architecture dilation algorithm. Experimental results on real-world datasets and benchmark neural networks demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm to balance the accuracy and adversarial robustness.
