• Abstract summary: We propose BDetCLIP, a novel test-time backdoor detection method based on contrastive prompting. We empirically find that the visual representations of backdoored images are insensitive to both benign and malignant changes in class description texts. Our proposed BDetCLIP is superior to state-of-the-art backdoor detection methods, in terms of both effectiveness and efficiency.

• Abstract: Multimodal contrastive learning methods (e.g., CLIP) have shown impressive zero-shot classification performance due to their strong ability to joint representation learning for visual and textual modalities. However, recent research revealed that multimodal contrastive learning on poisoned pre-training data with a small proportion of maliciously backdoored data can induce backdoored CLIP that could be attacked by inserted triggers in downstream tasks with a high success rate. To defend against backdoor attacks on CLIP, existing defense methods focus on either the pre-training stage or the fine-tuning stage, which would unfortunately cause high computational costs due to numerous parameter updates. In this paper, we provide the first attempt at a computationally efficient backdoor detection method to defend against backdoored CLIP in the inference stage. We empirically find that the visual representations of backdoored images are insensitive to both benign and malignant changes in class description texts. Motivated by this observation, we propose BDetCLIP, a novel test-time backdoor detection method based on contrastive prompting. Specifically, we first prompt the language model (e.g., GPT-4) to produce class-related description texts (benign) and class-perturbed random texts (malignant) by specially designed instructions. Then, the distribution difference in cosine similarity between images and the two types of class description texts can be used as the criterion to detect backdoor samples. Extensive experiments validate that our proposed BDetCLIP is superior to state-of-the-art backdoor detection methods, in terms of both effectiveness and efficiency.

  We propose a novel defense method called Test-Time Adversarial Prompt Tuning (TAPT) to enhance the inference robustness of CLIP against visual adversarial attacks. TAPT is a test-time defense method that learns defensive bimodal (textual and visual) prompts to robustify the inference process of CLIP. We evaluate the effectiveness of TAPT on 11 benchmark datasets, including ImageNet and 10 other zero-shot datasets.

  We propose to use model pairs on open-set classification tasks for detecting backdoors.

This technique allows for the detection of backdoors on models designed for open-set classification tasks, which is little studied in the literature.

  In this paper, we study whether sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) models are vulnerable to backdoor attacks. Specifically, we find by only injecting 0.2% samples of the dataset, we can cause the seq2seq model to generate the designated keyword and even the whole sentence. Extensive experiments on machine translation and text summarization have been conducted to show our proposed methods could achieve over 90% attack success rate on multiple datasets and models.

• Training set cleansing of backdoor poisoning by self-supervised representation learning [0.0]
  A backdoor or Trojan attack is an important type of data poisoning attack against deep neural network (DNN) We show that supervised training may build stronger association between the backdoor pattern and the associated target class than that between normal features and the true class of origin. We propose to use unsupervised representation learning to avoid emphasising backdoor-poisoned training samples and learn a similar feature embedding for samples of the same class.
