• Abstract summary: "Adversarial Machine Learning" aims to devise new adversarial attacks and to defend against these attacks with more robust architectures. This study explores the usage of quantified epistemic uncertainty obtained from Monte-Carlo Dropout Sampling for adversarial attack purposes. Our results show that our proposed hybrid attack approach increases the attack success rates from 82.59% to 85.40%, 82.86% to 89.92% and 88.06% to 90.03% on datasets.

• Abstract: Deep neural network architectures are considered to be robust to random perturbations. Nevertheless, it was shown that they could be severely vulnerable to slight but carefully crafted perturbations of the input, termed as adversarial samples. In recent years, numerous studies have been conducted in this new area called "Adversarial Machine Learning" to devise new adversarial attacks and to defend against these attacks with more robust DNN architectures. However, almost all the research work so far has been concentrated on utilising model loss function to craft adversarial examples or create robust models. This study explores the usage of quantified epistemic uncertainty obtained from Monte-Carlo Dropout Sampling for adversarial attack purposes by which we perturb the input to the areas where the model has not seen before. We proposed new attack ideas based on the epistemic uncertainty of the model. Our results show that our proposed hybrid attack approach increases the attack success rates from 82.59% to 85.40%, 82.86% to 89.92% and 88.06% to 90.03% on MNIST Digit, MNIST Fashion and CIFAR-10 datasets, respectively.

  Existing model stealing defenses add deceptive perturbations to the victim's posterior probabilities to mislead the attackers. This paper proposes Isolation and Induction (InI), a novel and effective training framework for model stealing defenses. In contrast to adding perturbations over model predictions that harm the benign accuracy, we train models to produce uninformative outputs against stealing queries.

  A standard method in adversarial robustness assumes a framework to defend against samples crafted by minimally perturbing a sample. We use metric learning to frame adversarial regularization as an optimal transport problem. Our preliminary results indicate that regularizing over invariant perturbations in our framework improves both invariant and sensitivity defense.
