In this paper, we present a robust classification-autoencoder (CAE) which has strong ability to recognize outliers and defend adversaries. The basic idea is to change the autoencoder from an unsupervised learning method into a classifier. The CAE is a modified autoencoder, where the encoder is used to compress samples with different labels into disjoint compression spaces and the decoder is used to recover a sample with a given label from the corresponding compression space. The encoder is used as a classifier and the decoder is used to decide whether the classification given by the encoder is correct by comparing the input sample with the output. Since adversary samples are seeming inevitable for the current DNN framework, we introduce the list classification based on CAE to defend adversaries, which outputs several labels and the corresponding samples recovered by the CAE. The CAE is evaluated using the MNIST dataset in great detail. It is shown that the CAE network can recognize almost all outliers and the list classification contains the correct label for almost all adversaries.

Noisy labels are ubiquitous in real-world datasets, which poses a challenge for robustly training deep neural networks (DNNs) since DNNs can easily overfit to the noisy labels. Most recent efforts have been devoted to defending noisy labels by discar ding noisy samples from the training set or assigning weights to training samples, where the weight associated with a noisy sample is expected to be small. Thereby, these previous efforts result in a waste of samples, especially those assigned with small weights. The input $x$ is always useful regardless of whether its observed label $y$ is clean. To make full use of all samples, we introduce a manifold regularizer, named as Paired Softmax Divergence Regularization (PSDR), to penalize the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence between softmax outputs of similar inputs. In particular, similar inputs can be effectively generated by data augmentation. PSDR can be easily implemented on any type of DNNs to improve the robustness against noisy labels. As empirically demonstrated on benchmark datasets, our PSDR impressively improve state-of-the-art results by a significant margin.

Extreme Multi-label classification (XML) is an important yet challenging machine learning task, that assigns to each instance its most relevant candidate labels from an extremely large label collection, where the numbers of labels, features and insta nces could be thousands or millions. XML is more and more on demand in the Internet industries, accompanied with the increasing business scale / scope and data accumulation. The extremely large label collections yield challenges such as computational complexity, inter-label dependency and noisy labeling. Many methods have been proposed to tackle these challenges, based on different mathematical formulations. In this paper, we propose a deep learning XML method, with a word-vector-based self-attention, followed by a ranking-based AutoEncoder architecture. The proposed method has three major advantages: 1) the autoencoder simultaneously considers the inter-label dependencies and the feature-label dependencies, by projecting labels and features onto a common embedding space; 2) the ranking loss not only improves the training efficiency and accuracy but also can be extended to handle noisy labeled data; 3) the efficient attention mechanism improves feature representation by highlighting feature importance. Experimental results on benchmark datasets show the proposed method is competitive to state-of-the-art methods.
We consider the problem of learning linear classifiers when both features and labels are binary. In addition, the features are noisy, i.e., they could be flipped with an unknown probability. In Sy-De attribute noise model, where all features could be noisy together with same probability, we show that $0$-$1$ loss ($l_{0-1}$) need not be robust but a popular surrogate, squared loss ($l_{sq}$) is. In Asy-In attribute noise model, we prove that $l_{0-1}$ is robust for any distribution over 2 dimensional feature space. However, due to computational intractability of $l_{0-1}$, we resort to $l_{sq}$ and observe that it need not be Asy-In noise robust. Our empirical results support Sy-De robustness of squared loss for low to moderate noise rates.
Classical approaches for one-class problems such as one-class SVM and isolation forest require careful feature engineering when applied to structured domains like images. State-of-the-art methods aim to leverage deep learning to learn appropriate fea tures via two main approaches. The first approach based on predicting transformations (Golan & El-Yaniv, 2018; Hendrycks et al., 2019a) while successful in some domains, crucially depends on an appropriate domain-specific set of transformations that are hard to obtain in general. The second approach of minimizing a classical one-class loss on the learned final layer representations, e.g., DeepSVDD (Ruff et al., 2018) suffers from the fundamental drawback of representation collapse. In this work, we propose Deep Robust One-Class Classification (DROCC) that is both applicable to most standard domains without requiring any side-information and robust to representation collapse. DROCC is based on the assumption that the points from the class of interest lie on a well-sampled, locally linear low dimensional manifold. Empirical evaluation demonstrates that DROCC is highly effective in two different one-class problem settings and on a range of real-world datasets across different domains: tabular data, images (CIFAR and ImageNet), audio, and time-series, offering up to 20% increase in accuracy over the state-of-the-art in anomaly detection.

We study the problem of robust subspace recovery (RSR) in the presence of adversarial outliers. That is, we seek a subspace that contains a large portion of a dataset when some fraction of the data points are arbitrarily corrupted. We first examine a theoretical estimator that is intractable to calculate and use it to derive information-theoretic bounds of exact recovery. We then propose two tractable estimators: a variant of RANSAC and a simple relaxation of the theoretical estimator. The two estimators are fast to compute and achieve state-of-the-art theoretical performance in a noiseless RSR setting with adversarial outliers. The former estimator achieves better theoretical guarantees in the noiseless case, while the latter estimator is robust to small noise, and its guarantees significantly improve with non-adversarial models of outliers. We give a complete comparison of guarantees for the adversarial RSR problem, as well as a short discussion on the estimation of affine subspaces.
