Adversarial Transformation
Adversarial transformations explore how small, carefully crafted changes to input data can drastically alter the output of machine learning models, particularly deep neural networks. Current research focuses on developing both attacks (generating these adversarial transformations) and defenses against them, across various data types including images, 3D meshes, and point clouds, employing techniques like spectral decomposition, adversarial training, and generative adversarial networks (GANs). This research is crucial for improving the robustness and reliability of AI systems, with implications for security in applications like face recognition and autonomous driving, as well as for understanding the fundamental limitations of current deep learning architectures.
