• Abstract: Deep neural networks (DNNs) are vulnerable to adversarial noise. Their adversarial robustness can be improved by exploiting adversarial examples. However, given the continuously evolving attacks, models trained on seen types of adversarial examples generally cannot generalize well to unseen types of adversarial examples. To solve this problem, in this paper, we propose to remove adversarial noise by learning generalizable invariant features across attacks which maintain semantic classification information. Specifically, we introduce an adversarial feature learning mechanism to disentangle invariant features from adversarial noise. A normalization term has been proposed in the encoded space of the attack-invariant features to address the bias issue between the seen and unseen types of attacks. Empirical evaluations demonstrate that our method could provide better protection in comparison to previous state-of-the-art approaches, especially against unseen types of attacks and adaptive attacks.

  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.

  We propose a new probabilistic adversarial detector motivated by a recently introduced non-robust feature. In this paper, we consider the non-robust features as a common property of adversarial examples, and we deduce it is possible to find a cluster in representation space corresponding to the property. This idea leads us to probability estimate distribution of adversarial representations in a separate cluster, and leverage the distribution for a likelihood based adversarial detector.
