Random Projections for Improved Adversarial Robustness
share
We propose two training techniques for improving the robustness of Neural Networks to adversarial attacks, i.e. manipulations of the inputs that are maliciously crafted to fool networks into incorrect predictions. Both methods are independent of the chosen attack and leverage random projections of the original inputs, with the purpose of exploiting both dimensionality reduction and some characteristic geometrical properties of adversarial perturbations. The first technique is called RP-Ensemble and consists of an ensemble of networks trained on multiple projected versions of the original inputs. The second one, named RP-Regularizer, adds instead a regularization term to the training objective.
