Lipschitz Continuity

Lipschitz continuity, a mathematical property describing the smoothness of a function, is a key focus in current machine learning research, particularly for improving the robustness and generalization of models. Researchers are actively investigating methods to enforce or estimate Lipschitz constants in various architectures, including deep neural networks and generative adversarial networks (GANs), often employing techniques like constrained normalization and randomized smoothing to achieve this. This work is driven by the need for more reliable and stable models, with applications ranging from enhancing the security of image classifiers against adversarial attacks to improving the performance of data-efficient GANs and image reconstruction algorithms. The ultimate goal is to develop more trustworthy and predictable AI systems.
