In this paper, we address the open question: "What do adversarially robust models look at?" Recently, it has been reported in many works that there exists the trade-off between standard accuracy and adversarial robustness. According to prior works, this trade-off is rooted in the fact that adversarially robust and standard accurate models might depend on very different sets of features. However, it has not been well studied what kind of difference actually exists. In this paper, we analyze this… Expand

Attention Meets Perturbations: Robust and Interpretable Attention With Adversarial Training
• Computer Science

A fundamental tradeoff between the amount of test error and the average distance to nearest error is shown, which proves that any model which misclassifies a small constant fraction of a sphere will be vulnerable to adversarial perturbations of size O(1/\sqrt{d})\$. Expand

It is shown empirically that adversarial perturbations can be detected surprisingly well even though they are quasi-imperceptible to humans. Expand
Robustness May Be at Odds with Accuracy
• Computer Science, Mathematics
• ICLR
• 2019
It is shown that there may exist an inherent tension between the goal of adversarial robustness and that of standard generalization, and it is argued that this phenomenon is a consequence of robust classifiers learning fundamentally different feature representations than standard classifiers.

Interpretation of Neural Networks is Fragile
• Mathematics, Computer Science
• AAAI
• 2019
This paper systematically characterize the fragility of several widely-used feature-importance interpretation methods (saliency maps, relevance propagation, and DeepLIFT) on ImageNet and CIFAR-10 and extends these results to show that interpretations based on exemplars (e.g. influence functions) are similarly fragile.

Robustness via Curvature Regularization, and Vice Versa
• Computer Science, Mathematics
• 2019 IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR)
• 2019
It is shown in particular that adversarial training leads to a significant decrease in the curvature of the loss surface with respect to inputs, leading to a drastically more "linear" behaviour of the network. Expand

This paper presents a technique for extending these training procedures to much more general networks, with skip connections and general nonlinearities, and shows how to further improve robust error through cascade models. Expand

A Boundary Tilting Persepective on the Phenomenon of Adversarial Examples
• Computer Science, Mathematics

It is shown that the adversarial strength observed in practice is directly dependent on the level of regularisation used and the strongest adversarial examples, symptomatic of overfitting, can be avoided by using a proper level ofRegularisation. Expand
