• Abstract summary: Adversary training is the most successful method that consistently resists a wide range of attacks. We propose the Adversary Divergence Reduction Network which enforces local/global compactness and the clustering assumption. The experimental results demonstrate that augmenting adversarial training with our proposed components can further improve the robustness of the network.

• Abstract: The fact that deep neural networks are susceptible to crafted perturbations severely impacts the use of deep learning in certain domains of application. Among many developed defense models against such attacks, adversarial training emerges as the most successful method that consistently resists a wide range of attacks. In this work, based on an observation from a previous study that the representations of a clean data example and its adversarial examples become more divergent in higher layers of a deep neural net, we propose the Adversary Divergence Reduction Network which enforces local/global compactness and the clustering assumption over an intermediate layer of a deep neural network. We conduct comprehensive experiments to understand the isolating behavior of each component (i.e., local/global compactness and the clustering assumption) and compare our proposed model with state-of-the-art adversarial training methods. The experimental results demonstrate that augmenting adversarial training with our proposed components can further improve the robustness of the network, leading to higher unperturbed and adversarial predictive performances.

  Deep learning systems are vulnerable to crafted adversarial examples, which may be imperceptible to the human eye, but can lead the model to misclassify. We develop a new ensemble-based solution that constructs defender models with diverse decision boundaries with respect to the original model. We present extensive experimentations using standard image classification datasets, namely MNIST, CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100 against state-of-the-art adversarial attacks.

  We evaluate the impact of neural network pruning on the adversarial robustness against L-0, L-2 and L-infinity attacks. Our results confirm that neural network pruning and adversarial robustness are not mutually exclusive. We extend our analysis to situations that incorporate additional assumptions on the adversarial scenario and show that depending on the situation, different strategies are optimal.
