Webinar Title: Fooling Neural Network Classifiers
15 October 2020, Thursday, 14:00 – 14:45 BST Speaker Name: Hatem Hajri Job Title: Senior Research Scientist Organization: Institut de recherche technologique SystemX, PALAISEAU, France Abstract:
Robustness of machine learning models is a key issue in several domains such as defense and security. Indeed neural network classifiers are known to be vulnerable to malicious adversarial perturbations of inputs including those modifying a small fraction of the input features named sparse attacks. In this talk we start by reviewing standard methods to fool neural network classifiers. Then, we restrict our attention to sparse attacks, explain their main motivations and give several examples of them. In a second part of the talk, we introduce new sparse attacks and illustrate their merits through several comparisons with the-state-of-the-art methods. A main focus will be put on the speed of the new attacks and their adaptability to real time testing of neural networks under the sparse assumption. Illustrations will be provided on three different datasets: the MNIST digit dataset, the CIFAR-10 RGB images and the GTSRB traffic signs images. The main reference to this talk is Probabilistic Jacobian-based Saliency Maps Attacks available on arxiv. Speaker CV: Hatem Hajri is a Senior Research Scientist at IRT SystemX, where he mainly works on robustness and adversarial attacks of artificial intelligence-based systems. Previously, he held three teaching and research positions as University Paris 10, Luxembourg University, and University of Bordeaux, where he worked on various problems of stochastic analysis and graphical models, and at the VeDeCoM Institute at Versailles, France, where he conducted research on autonomous driving.
