LP-BFGS attack: An adversarial attack based on the Hessian with limited pixels
Deep neural networks are vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Most white-box attacks are based on the gradient of models to the input. Since the computation and memory budget, adversarial attacks based on the Hessian information are not paid enough attention. In this work, we study the attack performance and computation cost of the attack method based on the Hessian with a limited perturbation pixel number. Specifically, we propose the Limited Pixel BFGS (LP-BFGS) attack method by incorporating the BFGS algorithm. Some pixels are selected as perturbation pixels by the Integrated Gradient algorithm, which are regarded as optimization variables of the LP-BFGS attack. Experimental results across different networks and datasets with various perturbation pixel numbers demonstrate our approach has a comparable attack with an acceptable computation compared with existing solutions.
