• Abstract: Progress in making neural networks more robust against adversarial attacks is mostly marginal, despite the great efforts of the research community. Moreover, the robustness evaluation is often imprecise, making it difficult to identify promising approaches. We analyze the classification decisions of 19 different state-of-the-art neural networks trained to be robust against adversarial attacks. Our findings suggest that current untargeted adversarial attacks induce misclassification towards only a limited amount of different classes. Additionally, we observe that both over- and under-confidence in model predictions result in an inaccurate assessment of model robustness. Based on these observations, we propose a novel loss function for adversarial attacks that consistently improves attack success rate compared to prior loss functions for 19 out of 19 analyzed models.

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.

  adversarial training with untargeted attacks is one of the most recognized methods. We find that the naturally imbalanced inter-class semantic similarity makes those hard-class pairs to become the virtual targets of each other. We propose to upweight hard-class pair loss in model optimization, which prompts learning discriminative features from hard classes.
