Despite the success of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in many computer vision and image analysis tasks, they remain vulnerable against so-called adversarial attacks: Small, crafted perturbations in the input images can lead to false predictions. A possible defense is to detect adversarial examples. In this work, we show how analysis in the Fourier domain of input images and feature maps can be used to distinguish benign test samples from adversarial images. We propose two novel detection methods: Our first method employs the magnitude spectrum of the input images to detect an adversarial attack. This simple and robust classifier can successfully detect adversarial perturbations of three commonly used attack methods. The second method builds upon the first and additionally extracts the phase of Fourier coefficients of feature-maps at different layers of the network. With this extension, we are able to improve adversarial detection rates compared to state-of-the-art detectors on five different attack methods. The code for the methods proposed in the paper is available at github.com/paulaharder/SpectralAdversarialDefense
Correlation Clustering, also called the minimum cost Multicut problem, is the process of grouping data by pairwise similarities. It has proven to be effective on clustering problems, where the number of classes is unknown. However, not only is the Multicut problem NP-hard, an undirected graph G with n vertices representing single images has at most edges, thus making it challenging to implement correlation clustering for large datasets. In this work, we propose Multi-Stage Multicuts (MSM) as a scalable approach for image clustering. Specifically, we solve minimum cost Multicut problems across multiple distributed compute units. Our approach not only allows to solve problem instances which are too large to fit into the shared memory of a single compute node, but it also achieves significant speedups while preserving the clustering accuracy at the same time. We evaluate our proposed method on the CIFAR10 …
In this work, we evaluate two different image clustering objectives, k-means clustering and correlation clustering, in the context of Triplet Loss induced feature space embeddings. Specifically, we train a convolutional neural network to learn discriminative features by optimizing two popular versions of the Triplet Loss in order to study their clustering properties under the assumption of noisy labels. Additionally, we propose a new, simple Triplet Loss formulation, which shows desirable properties with respect to formal clustering objectives and outperforms the existing methods. We evaluate all three Triplet loss formulations for K-means and correlation clustering on the CIFAR-10 image classification dataset.
