To tackle the susceptibility of deep neural networks to examples, the adversarial training has been proposed which provides a notion of robust through an inner maximization problem presenting the first-order embedded within the outer minimization of the training loss. To generalize the adversarial robustness over different perturbation types, the adversarial training method has been augmented with the improved inner maximization presenting a union of multiple perturbations e.g., various $ell_p$ norm-bounded perturbations.

In the field of machine learning there is a growing interest towards more robust and generalizable algorithms. This is for example important to bridge the gap between the environment in which the training data was collected and the environment where the algorithm is deployed. Machine learning algorithms have increasingly been shown to excel in finding patterns and correlations from data. Determining the consistency of these patterns and for example the distinction between causal correlations and nonsensical spurious relations has proven to be much more difficult. In this paper a regularization scheme is introduced that prefers universal causal correlations. This approach is based on 1) the robustness of causal correlations and 2) the data not being independently and identically distribute (i.i.d.). The scheme is demonstrated with a classification task by clustering the (non-i.i.d.) training set in subpopulations. A non-i.i.d. regularization term is then introduced that penalizes weights that are not invariant over these clusters. The resulting algorithm favours correlations that are universal over the subpopulations and indeed a better performance is obtained on an out-of-distribution test set with respect to a more conventional l_2-regularization.

Mixture of Experts (MoE) is a popular framework for modeling heterogeneity in data for regression, classification, and clustering. For regression and cluster analyses of continuous data, MoE usually use normal experts following the Gaussian distribut ion. However, for a set of data containing a group or groups of observations with heavy tails or atypical observations, the use of normal experts is unsuitable and can unduly affect the fit of the MoE model. We introduce a robust MoE modeling using the $t$ distribution. The proposed $t$ MoE (TMoE) deals with these issues regarding heavy-tailed and noisy data. We develop a dedicated expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm to estimate the parameters of the proposed model by monotonically maximizing the observed data log-likelihood. We describe how the presented model can be used in prediction and in model-based clustering of regression data. The proposed model is validated on numerical experiments carried out on simulated data, which show the effectiveness and the robustness of the proposed model in terms of modeling non-linear regression functions as well as in model-based clustering. Then, it is applied to the real-world data of tone perception for musical data analysis, and the one of temperature anomalies for the analysis of climate change data. The obtained results show the usefulness of the TMoE model for practical applications.

Mixture of Experts (MoE) is a popular framework in the fields of statistics and machine learning for modeling heterogeneity in data for regression, classification and clustering. MoE for continuous data are usually based on the normal distribution. H owever, it is known that for data with asymmetric behavior, heavy tails and atypical observations, the use of the normal distribution is unsuitable. We introduce a new robust non-normal mixture of experts modeling using the skew $t$ distribution. The proposed skew $t$ mixture of experts, named STMoE, handles these issues of the normal mixtures experts regarding possibly skewed, heavy-tailed and noisy data. We develop a dedicated expectation conditional maximization (ECM) algorithm to estimate the model parameters by monotonically maximizing the observed data log-likelihood. We describe how the presented model can be used in prediction and in model-based clustering of regression data. Numerical experiments carried out on simulated data show the effectiveness and the robustness of the proposed model in fitting non-linear regression functions as well as in model-based clustering. Then, the proposed model is applied to the real-world data of tone perception for musical data analysis, and the one of temperature anomalies for the analysis of climate change data. The obtained results confirm the usefulness of the model for practical data analysis applications.
Normalizing flows are prominent deep generative models that provide tractable probability distributions and efficient density estimation. However, they are well known to fail while detecting Out-of-Distribution (OOD) inputs as they directly encode th e local features of the input representations in their latent space. In this paper, we solve this overconfidence issue of normalizing flows by demonstrating that flows, if extended by an attention mechanism, can reliably detect outliers including adversarial attacks. Our approach does not require outlier data for training and we showcase the efficiency of our method for OOD detection by reporting state-of-the-art performance in diverse experimental settings.

Deep neural networks, including reinforcement learning agents, have been proven vulnerable to small adversarial changes in the input, thus making deploying such networks in the real world problematic. In this paper, we propose RADIAL-RL, a method to train reinforcement learning agents with improved robustness against any $l_p$-bounded adversarial attack. By simply minimizing an upper bound of the loss functions under worst case adversarial perturbation derived from efficient robustness verification methods, we significantly improve robustness of RL-agents trained on Atari-2600 games and show that RADIAL-RL can beat state-of-the-art robust training algorithms when evaluated against PGD-attacks. We also propose a new evaluation method, Greedy Worst-Case Reward (GWC), for measuring attack agnostic robustness of RL agents. GWC can be evaluated efficiently and it serves as a good estimate of the reward under the worst possible sequence of adversarial attacks; in particular, GWC accounts for the importance of each action and their temporal dependency, improving upon previous approaches that only evaluate whether each single action can change under input perturbations.
