• Title: Messing Up 3D Virtual Environments: Transferable Adversarial 3D Objects
• Authors: Enrico Meloni, Matteo Tiezzi, Luca Pasqualini, Marco Gori, Stefano Melacci
• Abstract summary: We study how to craft adversarial 3D objects by altering their textures, using a tool chain composed of easily accessible elements. We show that it is possible, and indeed simple, to create adversarial objects using off-the-shelf limited surrogates. We propose a saliency-based attack that intersects the two classes of adversarials in order to focus the alteration to those texture elements that are estimated to be effective in the target engine.

• Abstract: In the last few years, the scientific community showed a remarkable and increasing interest towards 3D Virtual Environments, training and testing Machine Learning-based models in realistic virtual worlds. On one hand, these environments could also become a mean to study the weaknesses of Machine Learning algorithms, or to simulate training settings that allow Machine Learning models to gain robustness to 3D adversarial attacks. On the other hand, their growing popularity might also attract those that aim at creating adversarial conditions to invalidate the benchmarking process, especially in the case of public environments that allow the contribution from a large community of people. Most of the existing Adversarial Machine Learning approaches are focused on static images, and little work has been done in studying how to deal with 3D environments and how a 3D object should be altered to fool a classifier that observes it. In this paper, we study how to craft adversarial 3D objects by altering their textures, using a tool chain composed of easily accessible elements. We show that it is possible, and indeed simple, to create adversarial objects using off-the-shelf limited surrogate renderers that can compute gradients with respect to the parameters of the rendering process, and, to a certain extent, to transfer the attacks to more advanced 3D engines. We propose a saliency-based attack that intersects the two classes of renderers in order to focus the alteration to those texture elements that are estimated to be effective in the target engine, evaluating its impact in popular neural classifiers.

  We present NeurOCS, a framework that uses instance masks 3D boxes as input to learn 3D object shapes by means of differentiable rendering. Our approach rests on insights in learning a category-level shape prior directly from real driving scenes. We make critical design choices to learn object coordinates more effectively from an object-centric view.

  We introduce Object Scene Representation Transformer (OSRT), a 3D-centric model in which individual object representations naturally emerge through novel view synthesis. OSRT scales to significantly more complex scenes with larger diversity of objects and backgrounds than existing methods. It is multiple orders of magnitude faster at compositional rendering thanks to its light field parametrization and the novel Slot Mixer decoder.

• Evaluating Continual Learning Algorithms by Generating 3D Virtual Environments [66.83839051693695]
  Continual learning refers to the ability of humans and animals to incrementally learn over time in a given environment. We propose to leverage recent advances in 3D virtual environments in order to approach the automatic generation of potentially life-long dynamic scenes with photo-realistic appearance. A novel element of this paper is that scenes are described in a parametric way, thus allowing the user to fully control the visual complexity of the input stream the agent perceives.

  A promising solution is to make better use of the synthetic dataset, which consists of CAD object models, to boost the learning on real datasets. Recent work on 3D pre-training exhibits failure when transfer features learned on synthetic objects to other real-world applications. In this work, we put forward a new method called RandomRooms to accomplish this objective.
