We propose a simple and highly query-efficient black-box adversarial attack named SWITCH, which has a state-of-the-art performance in the score-based setting. SWITCH features a highly efficient and effective utilization of the gradient of a surrogate model $hat{mathbf{g}}$ w.r.t. the input image, i.e., the transferable gradient. In each iteration, SWITCH first tries to update the current sample along the direction of $hat{mathbf{g}}$, but considers switching to its opposite direction $-hat{mathbf{g}}$ if our algorithm detects that it does not increase the value of the attack objective function. We justify the choice of switching to the opposite direction by a local approximate linearity assumption. In SWITCH, only one or two queries are needed per iteration, but it is still effective due to the rich information provided by the transferable gradient, thereby resulting in unprecedented query efficiency. To improve the robustness of SWITCH, we further propose SWITCH$_text{RGF}$ in which the update follows the direction of a random gradient-free (RGF) estimate when neither $hat{mathbf{g}}$ nor its opposite direction can increase the objective, while maintaining the advantage of SWITCH in terms of query efficiency. Experimental results conducted on CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100 and TinyImageNet show that compared with other methods, SWITCH achieves a satisfactory attack success rate using much fewer queries, and SWITCH$_text{RGF}$ achieves the state-of-the-art attack success rate with fewer queries overall. Our approach can serve as a strong baseline for future black-box attacks because of its simplicity. The PyTorch source code is released on https://github.com/machanic/SWITCH.

Face recognition has obtained remarkable progress in recent years due to the great improvement of deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs). However, deep CNNs are vulnerable to adversarial examples, which can cause fateful consequences in real-world
face recognition applications with security-sensitive purposes. Adversarial attacks are widely studied as they can identify the vulnerability of the models before they are deployed. In this paper, we evaluate the robustness of state-of-the-art face recognition models in the decision-based black-box attack setting, where the attackers have no access to the model parameters and gradients, but can only acquire hard-label predictions by sending queries to the target model. This attack setting is more practical in real-world face recognition systems. To improve the efficiency of previous methods, we propose an evolutionary attack algorithm, which can model the local geometries of the search directions and reduce the dimension of the search space. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method that induces a minimum perturbation to an input face image with fewer queries. We also apply the proposed method to attack a real-world face recognition system successfully.
Adversarial examples are known as carefully perturbed images fooling image classifiers. We propose a geometric framework to generate adversarial examples in one of the most challenging black-box settings where the adversary can only generate a small
number of queries, each of them returning the top-$1$ label of the classifier. Our framework is based on the observation that the decision boundary of deep networks usually has a small mean curvature in the vicinity of data samples. We propose an effective iterative algorithm to generate query-efficient black-box perturbations with small $ell_p$ norms for $p ge 1$, which is confirmed via experimental evaluations on state-of-the-art natural image classifiers. Moreover, for $p=2$, we theoretically show that our algorithm actually converges to the minimal $ell_2$-perturbation when the curvature of the decision boundary is bounded. We also obtain the optimal distribution of the queries over the iterations of the algorithm. Finally, experimental results confirm that our principled black-box attack algorithm performs better than state-of-the-art algorithms as it generates smaller perturbations with a reduced number of queries.
Deep neural networks (DNNs) are playing key roles in various artificial intelligence applications such as image classification and object recognition. However, a growing number of studies have shown that there exist adversarial examples in DNNs, whic
h are almost imperceptibly different from original samples, but can greatly change the network output. Existing white-box attack algorithms can generate powerful adversarial examples. Nevertheless, most of the algorithms concentrate on how to iteratively make the best use of gradients to improve adversarial performance. In contrast, in this paper, we focus on the properties of the widely-used ReLU activation function, and discover that there exist two phenomena (i.e., wrong blocking and over transmission) misleading the calculation of gradients in ReLU during the backpropagation. Both issues enlarge the difference between the predicted changes of the loss function from gradient and corresponding actual changes, and mislead the gradients which results in larger perturbations. Therefore, we propose a universal adversarial example generation method, called ADV-ReLU, to enhance the performance of gradient based white-box attack algorithms. During the backpropagation of the network, our approach calculates the gradient of the loss function versus network input, maps the values to scores, and selects a part of them to update the misleading gradients. Comprehensive experimental results on emph{ImageNet} demonstrate that our ADV-ReLU can be easily integrated into many state-of-the-art gradient-based white-box attack algorithms, as well as transferred to black-box attack attackers, to further decrease perturbations in the ${ell _2}$-norm.
We study the query-based attack against image retrieval to evaluate its robustness against adversarial examples under the black-box setting, where the adversary only has query access to the top-k ranked unlabeled images from the database. Compared wi
th query attacks in image classification, which produce adversaries according to the returned labels or confidence score, the challenge becomes even more prominent due to the difficulty in quantifying the attack effectiveness on the partial retrieved list. In this paper, we make the first attempt in Query-based Attack against Image Retrieval (QAIR), to completely subvert the top-k retrieval results. Specifically, a new relevance-based loss is designed to quantify the attack effects by measuring the set similarity on the top-k retrieval results before and after attacks and guide the gradient optimization. To further boost the attack efficiency, a recursive model stealing method is proposed to acquire transferable priors on the target model and generate the prior-guided gradients. Comprehensive experiments show that the proposed attack achieves a high attack success rate with few queries against the image retrieval systems under the black-box setting. The attack evaluations on the real-world visual search engine show that it successfully deceives a commercial system such as Bing Visual Search with 98% attack success rate by only 33 queries on average.
Deep neural networks are vulnerable to adversarial attacks. White-box adversarial attacks can fool neural networks with small adversarial perturbations, especially for large size images. However, keeping successful adversarial perturbations impercept
ible is especially challenging for transfer-based black-box adversarial attacks. Often such adversarial examples can be easily spotted due to their unpleasantly poor visual qualities, which compromises the threat of adversarial attacks in practice. In this study, to improve the image quality of black-box adversarial examples perceptually, we propose structure-aware adversarial attacks by generating adversarial images based on psychological perceptual models. Specifically, we allow higher perturbations on perceptually insignificant regions, while assigning lower or no perturbation on visually sensitive regions. In addition to the proposed spatial-constrained adversarial perturbations, we also propose a novel structure-aware frequency adversarial attack method in the discrete cosine transform (DCT) domain. Since the proposed attacks are independent of the gradient estimation, they can be directly incorporated with existing gradient-based attacks. Experimental results show that, with the comparable attack success rate (ASR), the proposed methods can produce adversarial examples with considerably improved visual quality for free. With the comparable perceptual quality, the proposed approaches achieve higher attack success rates: particularly for the frequency structure-aware attacks, the average ASR improves more than 10% over the baseline attacks.
