Abstract: | Adversarial examples are typically constructed by perturbation-based attack which perturb example with a small matrix norm. And there are numbers of defense method designed for this kind of adversarial example. Recently, a new attack method, unrestricted adversarial examples, are proposed. In this attack method, the attacker removes the small norm-bounded constraints and produces unrestricted adversarial examples entirely from scratch using trained generative models (AC-GAN). And then with desired class, it searches over the latent space to find images that could fool a victim classifier. In this paper, inspired by VAEGAN, VAE is introduced into AC-GAN to improve original generative model. The unrestricted adversarial examples generated by original methods and improved methods are given to humans for evaluating whether they are legitimate or not. The dataset in our experiments is MNIST. The victim classifier is Zico classifier, which is certified defense design for perturbation - based adversarial example. As experiment results shown, the overall success rate of our improved attack is higher than that of original one. |
