A fundamental question in adversarial machine learning is whether a robust classifier exists for a given task. A line of research has made progress towards this goal by studying concentration of measure, but without considering data labels. We argue that the standard concentration fails to fully characterize the intrinsic robustness of a classification problem, since it ignores data labels which are essential to any classification task. Building on a novel definition of label uncertainty, we empirically demonstrate that error regions induced by state-of-the-art models tend to have much higher label uncertainty compared with randomly-selected subsets. This observation motivates us to adapt a concentration estimation algorithm to account for label uncertainty, resulting in more accurate intrinsic robustness measures for benchmark image classification problems. We further provide empirical evidence showing that adding an abstain option for classifiers based on label uncertainty can help improve both the clean and robust accuracies of models.

Adversarial examples are delicately perturbed inputs, which aim to mislead machine learning models towards incorrect outputs. While most of the existing work focuses on generating adversarial perturbations in multi-class classification problems, many
real-world applications fall into the multi-label setting in which one instance could be associated with more than one label. For example, a spammer may generate adversarial spams with malicious advertising while maintaining the other labels such as topic labels unchanged. To analyze the vulnerability and robustness of multi-label learning models, we investigate the generation of multi-label adversarial perturbations. This is a challenging task due to the uncertain number of positive labels associated with one instance, as well as the fact that multiple labels are usually not mutually exclusive with each other. To bridge this gap, in this paper, we propose a general attacking framework targeting on multi-label classification problem and conduct a premier analysis on the perturbations for deep neural networks. Leveraging the ranking relationships among labels, we further design a ranking-based framework to attack multi-label ranking algorithms. We specify the connection between the two proposed frameworks and separately design two specific methods grounded on each of them to generate targeted multi-label perturbations. Experiments on real-world multi-label image classification and ranking problems demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed frameworks and provide insights of the vulnerability of multi-label deep learning models under diverse targeted attacking strategies. Several interesting findings including an unpolished defensive strategy, which could potentially enhance the interpretability and robustness of multi-label deep learning models, are further presented and discussed at the end.
Deep networks are well-known to be fragile to adversarial attacks. We conduct an empirical analysis of deep representations under the state-of-the-art attack method called PGD, and find that the attack causes the internal representation to shift clos
er to the false class. Motivated by this observation, we propose to regularize the representation space under attack with metric learning to produce more robust classifiers. By carefully sampling examples for metric learning, our learned representation not only increases robustness, but also detects previously unseen adversarial samples. Quantitative experiments show improvement of robustness accuracy by up to 4% and detection efficiency by up to 6% according to Area Under Curve score over prior work.

Recent breakthroughs in the field of deep learning have led to advancements in a broad spectrum of tasks in computer vision, audio processing, natural language processing and other areas. In most instances where these tasks are deployed in real-world
scenarios, the models used in them have been shown to be susceptible to adversarial attacks, making it imperative for us to address the challenge of their adversarial robustness. Existing techniques for adversarial robustness fall into three broad categories: defensive distillation techniques, adversarial training techniques, and randomized or non-deterministic model based techniques. In this paper, we propose a novel neural network paradigm that falls under the category of randomized models for adversarial robustness, but differs from all existing techniques under this category in that it models each parameter of the network as a statistical distribution with learnable parameters. We show experimentally that this framework is highly robust to a variety of white-box and black-box adversarial attacks, while preserving the task-specific performance of the traditional neural network model.
Despite the remarkable success of deep neural networks, significant concerns have emerged about their robustness to adversarial perturbations to inputs. While most attacks aim to ensure that these are imperceptible, physical perturbation attacks typi
cally aim for being unsuspicious, even if perceptible. However, there is no universal notion of what it means for adversarial examples to be unsuspicious. We propose an approach for modeling suspiciousness by leveraging cognitive salience. Specifically, we split an image into foreground (salient region) and background (the rest), and allow significantly larger adversarial perturbations in the background, while ensuring that cognitive salience of background remains low. We describe how to compute the resulting non-salience-preserving dual-perturbation attacks on classifiers. We then experimentally demonstrate that our attacks indeed do not significantly change perceptual salience of the background, but are highly effective against classifiers robust to conventional attacks. Furthermore, we show that adversarial training with dual-perturbation attacks yields classifiers that are more robust to these than state-of-the-art robust learning approaches, and comparable in terms of robustness to conventional attacks.
We focus on the use of proxy distributions, i.e., approximations of the underlying distribution of the training dataset, in both understanding and improving the adversarial robustness in image classification. While additional training data helps in a
dversarial training, curating a very large number of real-world images is challenging. In contrast, proxy distributions enable us to sample a potentially unlimited number of images and improve adversarial robustness using these samples. We first ask the question: when does adversarial robustness benefit from incorporating additional samples from the proxy distribution in the training stage? We prove that the difference between the robustness of a classifier on the proxy and original training dataset distribution is upper bounded by the conditional Wasserstein distance between them. Our result confirms the intuition that samples from a proxy distribution that closely approximates training dataset distribution should be able to boost adversarial robustness. Motivated by this finding, we leverage samples from state-of-the-art generative models, which can closely approximate training data distribution, to improve robustness. In particular, we improve robust accuracy by up to 6.1% and 5.7% in $l_{infty}$ and $l_2$ threat model, and certified robust accuracy by 6.7% over baselines not using proxy distributions on the CIFAR-10 dataset. Since we can sample an unlimited number of images from a proxy distribution, it also allows us to investigate the effect of an increasing number of training samples on adversarial robustness. Here we provide the first large scale empirical investigation of accuracy vs robustness trade-off and sample complexity of adversarial training by training deep neural networks on 2K to 10M images.
