Neural network models have become the leading solution for a large variety of tasks, such as classification, language processing, protein folding, and others. However, their reliability is heavily plagued by adversarial inputs: small input perturbations that cause the model to produce erroneous outputs. Adversarial inputs can occur naturally when the system’s environment behaves randomly, even in the absence of a malicious adversary, and are a severe cause for concern when attempting to deploy…
