• Abstract: The adversarial patch attack against image classification models aims to inject adversarially crafted pixels within a localized restricted image region (i.e., a patch) for inducing model misclassification. This attack can be realized in the physical world by printing and attaching the patch to the victim object and thus imposes a real-world threat to computer vision systems. To counter this threat, we propose PatchCleanser as a certifiably robust defense against adversarial patches that is compatible with any image classifier. In PatchCleanser, we perform two rounds of pixel masking on the input image to neutralize the effect of the adversarial patch. In the first round of masking, we apply a set of carefully generated masks to the input image and evaluate the model prediction on every masked image. If model predictions on all one-masked images reach a unanimous agreement, we output the agreed prediction label. Otherwise, we perform a second round of masking to settle the disagreement, in which we evaluate model predictions on two-masked images to robustly recover the correct prediction label. Notably, we can prove that our defense will always make correct predictions on certain images against any adaptive white-box attacker within our threat model, achieving certified robustness. We extensively evaluate our defense on the ImageNet, ImageNette, CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, SVHN, and Flowers-102 datasets and demonstrate that our defense achieves similar clean accuracy as state-of-the-art classification models and also significantly improves certified robustness from prior works. Notably, our defense can achieve 83.8% top-1 clean accuracy and 60.4% top-1 certified robust accuracy against a 2%-pixel square patch anywhere on the 1000-class ImageNet dataset.

  Image stitching seamlessly integrates images captured from varying perspectives into a single wide field-of-view image. Given a pair of captured images, subtle perturbations and distortions which go unnoticed by the human visual system tend to attack the correspondence matching. This paper presents the first attempt to improve the robustness of image stitching against adversarial attacks.

  An adversarial patch can arbitrarily manipulate image pixels within a restricted region to induce model misclassification. Recent provably robust defenses generally follow the PatchGuard framework by using CNNs with small receptive fields. We extend PatchGuard to PatchGuard++ for provably detecting the adversarial patch attack to boost both provable robust accuracy and clean accuracy.
