• Authors: Mitch Hill, Jonathan Mitchell, Song-Chun Zhu
• Abstract summary: The vulnerability of deep networks to adversarial attacks is a central problem for deep learning from the perspective of both cognition and security. We focus on defending naturally-trained classifiers using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling with an Energy-Based Model (EBM) for adversarial purification. Our contributions are 1) an improved method for training EBM's with realistic long-run MCMC samples, 2) Expectation-Over-Transformation (EOT) defense that resolves theoretical ambiguities for defenses, and 3) state-of-the-art adversarial defense for naturally-trained classifiers and competitive defense.

• Abstract: The vulnerability of deep networks to adversarial attacks is a central problem for deep learning from the perspective of both cognition and security. The current most successful defense method is to train a classifier using adversarial images created during learning. Another defense approach involves transformation or purification of the original input to remove adversarial signals before the image is classified. We focus on defending naturally-trained classifiers using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling with an Energy-Based Model (EBM) for adversarial purification. In contrast to adversarial training, our approach is intended to secure pre-existing and highly vulnerable classifiers. The memoryless behavior of long-run MCMC sampling will eventually remove adversarial signals, while metastable behavior preserves consistent appearance of MCMC samples after many steps to allow accurate long-run prediction. Balancing these factors can lead to effective purification and robust classification. We evaluate adversarial defense with an EBM using the strongest known attacks against purification. Our contributions are 1) an improved method for training EBM's with realistic long-run MCMC samples, 2) an Expectation-Over-Transformation (EOT) defense that resolves theoretical ambiguities for stochastic defenses and from which the EOT attack naturally follows, and 3) state-of-the-art adversarial defense for naturally-trained classifiers and competitive defense compared to adversarially-trained classifiers on Cifar-10, SVHN, and Cifar-100.

  Large language models (LLMs) are vulnerable to adversarial attacks that can bypass their safety guardrails. We propose a fast adversarial training algorithm (C-AdvUL) composed of two losses.

  Adrial training is the current state-of-the-art defense against adversarial attacks. It lowers the model's accuracy on clean inputs, is computationally expensive, and offers less robustness to natural noise. In contrast, energy-based models (EBMs) incorporate feedback connections from each layer to the previous layer, yielding a recurrent, deep-attractor architecture.

  Human Activity Recognition (HAR) has been employed in a wide range of applications, e.g. self-driving cars. Recently, the robustness of skeleton-based HAR methods have been questioned due to their vulnerability to adversarial attacks. We show such threats exist, even when the attacker only has access to the input/output of the model. We propose the very first black-box adversarial attack approach in skeleton-based HAR called BASAR.
