• Abstract: As the adoption of machine learning models increases, ensuring robust models against adversarial attacks is increasingly important. With unsupervised machine learning gaining more attention, ensuring it is robust against attacks is vital. This paper conducts a systematic literature review on the robustness of unsupervised learning, collecting 86 papers. Our results show that most research focuses on privacy attacks, which have effective defenses; however, many attacks lack effective and general defensive measures. Based on the results, we formulate a model on the properties of an attack on unsupervised learning, contributing to future research by providing a model to use.

  Given the escalating risks of malicious attacks in the finance sector, understanding adversarial strategies and robust defense mechanisms for machine learning models is critical. We aim to investigate the current state and dynamics of adversarial attacks and defenses for neural network models that use sequential financial data as the input. We have designed a competition that allows realistic and detailed investigation of problems in modern financial transaction data. The participants compete directly against each other, so possible attacks and defenses are examined in close-to-real-life conditions.

  We present a large-scale measurement of different membership inference attacks and defenses. We find that some assumptions of the threat model, such as same-architecture and same-distribution between shadow and target models, are unnecessary. We are also the first to execute attacks on the real-world data collected from the Internet, instead of laboratory datasets.

  We propose to explore adversarial examples and attack detection on reinforcement learning-based interactive recommendation systems. We first craft different types of adversarial examples by adding perturbations to the input and intervening on the casual factors. Then, we augment recommendation systems by detecting potential attacks with a deep learning-based classifier based on the crafted data.

  More and more malicious attackers attempt to launch adversarial attacks at automatic speaker verification (ASV) systems. We propose a standard and attack-agnostic method based on cascaded self-supervised learning models to purify the adversarial perturbations. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves effective defense performance and can successfully counter adversarial attacks.

Our analysis relies on a modular re-usable software, ML-Doctor, which enables ML model owners to assess the risks of deploying their models.
