White Box Adversarial
White-box adversarial attacks aim to evaluate and improve the robustness of machine learning models by exploiting full knowledge of the model's architecture and parameters to generate adversarial examples—inputs designed to cause misclassification. Current research focuses on developing increasingly effective white-box attacks against various model architectures, including convolutional neural networks, hypergraph neural networks, spiking neural networks, and reinforcement learning agents, and exploring defense mechanisms such as trusted execution environments and Bayesian neural networks. This research is crucial for ensuring the reliability and security of machine learning systems across diverse applications, from autonomous vehicles to healthcare and speech recognition, where vulnerabilities to adversarial attacks can have significant real-world consequences. The development of both stronger attacks and more robust defenses is driving progress in understanding and mitigating these vulnerabilities.
