Poisoning attacks have emerged as a significant security threat to machine learning (ML) algorithms. It has been demonstrated that adversaries who make small changes to the training set, such as adding specially crafted data points, can hurt the performance of the output model. Most of these attacks require the full knowledge of training data or the underlying data distribution. In this paper we study the power of oblivious adversaries who do not have any information about the training set. We show a separation between oblivious and full-information poisoning adversaries. Specifically, we construct a sparse linear regression problem for which LASSO estimator is robust against oblivious adversaries whose goal is to add a non-relevant features to the model with certain poisoning budget. On the other hand, non-oblivious adversaries, with the same budget, can craft poisoning examples based on the rest of the training data and successfully add non-relevant features to the model.

A backdoor data poisoning attack is an adversarial attack wherein the attacker injects several watermarked, mislabeled training examples into a training set. The watermark does not impact the test-time performance of the model on typical data; howeve
r, the model reliably errs on watermarked examples. To gain a better foundational understanding of backdoor data poisoning attacks, we present a formal theoretical framework within which one can discuss backdoor data poisoning attacks for classification problems. We then use this to analyze important statistical and computational issues surrounding these attacks. On the statistical front, we identify a parameter we call the memorization capacity that captures the intrinsic vulnerability of a learning problem to a backdoor attack. This allows us to argue about the robustness of several natural learning problems to backdoor attacks. Our results favoring the attacker involve presenting explicit constructions of backdoor attacks, and our robustness results show that some natural problem settings cannot yield successful backdoor attacks. From a computational standpoint, we show that under certain assumptions, adversarial training can detect the presence of backdoors in a training set. We then show that under similar assumptions, two closely related problems we call backdoor filtering and robust generalization are nearly equivalent. This implies that it is both asymptotically necessary and sufficient to design algorithms that can identify watermarked examples in the training set in order to obtain a learning algorithm that both generalizes well to unseen data and is robust to backdoors.
Machine learning algorithms are vulnerable to poisoning attacks, where a fraction of the training data is manipulated to degrade the algorithms performance. We show that current approaches, which typically assume that regularization hyperparameters r
emain constant, lead to an overly pessimistic view of the algorithms robustness and of the impact of regularization. We propose a novel optimal attack formulation that considers the effect of the attack on the hyperparameters, modelling the attack as a emph{minimax bilevel optimization problem}. This allows to formulate optimal attacks, select hyperparameters and evaluate robustness under worst case conditions. We apply this formulation to logistic regression using $L_2$ regularization, empirically show the limitations of previous strategies and evidence the benefits of using $L_2$ regularization to dampen the effect of poisoning attacks.
A recent source of concern for the security of neural networks is the emergence of clean-label dataset poisoning attacks, wherein correctly labeled poison samples are injected into the training dataset. While these poison samples look legitimate to t
he human observer, they contain malicious characteristics that trigger a targeted misclassification during inference. We propose a scalable and transferable clean-label poisoning attack against transfer learning, which creates poison images with their center close to the target image in the feature space. Our attack, Bullseye Polytope, improves the attack success rate of the current state-of-the-art by 26.75% in end-to-end transfer learning, while increasing attack speed by a factor of 12. We further extend Bullseye Polytope to a more practical attack model by including multiple images of the same object (e.g., from different angles) when crafting the poison samples. We demonstrate that this extension improves attack transferability by over 16% to unseen images (of the same object) without using extra poison samples.
Neural Architecture Search (NAS) often trains and evaluates a large number of architectures. Recent predictor-based NAS approaches attempt to address such heavy computation costs with two key steps: sampling some architecture-performance pairs and fi
tting a proxy accuracy predictor. Given limited samples, these predictors, however, are far from accurate to locate top architectures due to the difficulty of fitting the huge search space. This paper reflects on a simple yet crucial question: if our final goal is to find the best architecture, do we really need to model the whole space well?. We propose a paradigm shift from fitting the whole architecture space using one strong predictor, to progressively fitting a search path towards the high-performance sub-space through a set of weaker predictors. As a key property of the proposed weak predictors, their probabilities of sampling better architectures keep increasing. Hence we only sample a few well-performed architectures guided by the previously learned predictor and estimate a new better weak predictor. This embarrassingly easy framework produces coarse-to-fine iteration to refine the ranking of sampling space gradually. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method costs fewer samples to find top-performance architectures on NAS-Bench-101 and NAS-Bench-201, as well as achieves the state-of-the-art ImageNet performance on the NASNet search space. In particular, compared to state-of-the-art (SOTA) predictor-based NAS methods, WeakNAS outperforms all of them with notable margins, e.g., requiring at least 7.5x less samples to find global optimal on NAS-Bench-101; and WeakNAS can also absorb them for further performance boost. We further strike the new SOTA result of 81.3% in the ImageNet MobileNet Search Space. The code is available at https://github.com/VITA-Group/WeakNAS.
In this paper, we study PAC learnability and certification of predictions under instance-targeted poisoning attacks, where the adversary who knows the test instance may change a fraction of the training set with the goal of fooling the learner at the
test instance. Our first contribution is to formalize the problem in various settings and to explicitly model subtle aspects such as the proper or improper nature of the learning, learners randomness, and whether (or not) adversarys attack can depend on it. Our main result shows that when the budget of the adversary scales sublinearly with the sample complexity, (improper) PAC learnability and certification are achievable; in contrast, when the adversarys budget grows linearly with the sample complexity, the adversary can potentially drive up the expected 0-1 loss to one. We also study distribution-specific PAC learning in the same attack model and show that proper learning with certification is possible for learning half spaces under natural distributions. Finally, we empirically study the robustness of K nearest neighbour, logistic regression, multi-layer perceptron, and convolutional neural network on real data sets against targeted-poisoning attacks. Our experimental results show that many models, especially state-of-the-art neural networks, are indeed vulnerable to these strong attacks. Interestingly, we observe that methods with high standard accuracy might be more vulnerable to instance-targeted poisoning attacks.
