• Abstract: Adversarial attacks on robotic grasping provide valuable insights into evaluating and improving the robustness of these systems. Unlike studies that focus solely on neural network predictions while overlooking the physical principles of grasping, this paper introduces AdvGrasp, a framework for adversarial attacks on robotic grasping from a physical perspective. Specifically, AdvGrasp targets two core aspects: lift capability, which evaluates the ability to lift objects against gravity, and grasp stability, which assesses resistance to external disturbances. By deforming the object's shape to increase gravitational torque and reduce stability margin in the wrench space, our method systematically degrades these two key grasping metrics, generating adversarial objects that compromise grasp performance. Extensive experiments across diverse scenarios validate the effectiveness of AdvGrasp, while real-world validations demonstrate its robustness and practical applicability

  Adversarial examples derived from deliberately crafted perturbations on visual inputs can easily harm decision process of deep neural networks. We introduce a causal approach called Adversarial Double Machine Learning (ADML) which allows us to quantify the degree of adversarial vulnerability for network predictions. ADML can directly estimate causal parameter of adversarial perturbations per se and mitigate negative effects that can potentially damage robustness.

  A standard method in adversarial robustness assumes a framework to defend against samples crafted by minimally perturbing a sample.
