Feature Compression May Be the Root Cause of Adversarial Fragility in Neural Network Classifiers (Student Abstract)

AAAI 2026technical

In this paper, we study the adversarial robustness of deep neural networks (DNN) for classification against optimal classifiers. We look at the smallest magnitude of possible additive perturbations that can change a classifier

Feature compression is the root cause of adversarial fragility in neural networks

ICLR 2026poster

In this paper, we uniquely study the adversarial robustness of deep neural networks (NN) for classification tasks against that of optimal classifiers. We look at the smallest magnitude of possible additive perturbations that can change a classifier's output. We provide a matrix-theoretic explanati…

Optimal Compression for Minimizing Classification Error Probability: An Information-Theoretic Approach

ICASSP 2023accepted

We formulate the problem of performing optimal data compression under the constraints that compressed data can be used for accurate classification in machine learning. We show that this translates to a problem of minimizing the mutual information between data and its compressed version under the con…
