On the Evaluation of Capability Estimation Methods for Large Language Models

AAAI 2026technical

The emergence of large language models (LLMs) marks a transformative era in artificial intelligence~(AI). However, systematically evaluating the capability of LLMs is challenging due to the necessity of a large number of labeled test data. To tackle this problem, in the conventional AI field, AutoEv

Constrained Adaptive Attack: Effective Adversarial Attack Against Deep Neural Networks for Tabular Data

NeurIPS 2024spotlight

State-of-the-art deep learning models for tabular data have recently achieved acceptable performance to be deployed in industrial settings. However, the robustness of these models remains scarcely explored. Contrary to computer vision, there are no effective attacks to properly evaluate the adversar…

How Realistic Is Your Synthetic Data? Constraining Deep Generative Models for Tabular Data

ICLR 2024poster

Deep Generative Models (DGMs) have been shown to be powerful tools for generating tabular data, as they have been increasingly able to capture the complex distributions that characterize them. However, to generate realistic synthetic data, it is often not enough to have a good approximation of their…

TabularBench: Benchmarking Adversarial Robustness for Tabular Deep Learning in Real-world Use-cases

NeurIPS 2024poster

While adversarial robustness in computer vision is a mature research field, fewer researchers have tackled the evasion attacks against tabular deep learning, and even fewer investigated robustification mechanisms and reliable defenses. We hypothesize that this lag in the research on tabular adversar…

GAT: Guided Adversarial Training with Pareto-optimal Auxiliary Tasks

ICML 2023poster

While leveraging additional training data is well established to improve adversarial robustness, it incurs the unavoidable cost of data collection and the heavy computation to train models. To mitigate the costs, we propose *Guided Adversarial Training * (GAT), a novel adversarial training technique…

How do humans perceive adversarial text? A reality check on the validity and naturalness of word-based adversarial attacks

ACL 2023long

Natural Language Processing (NLP) models based on Machine Learning (ML) are susceptible to adversarial attacks – malicious algorithms that imperceptibly modify input text to force models into making incorrect predictions. However, evaluations of these attacks ignore the property of imperceptibility…

A Unified Framework for Adversarial Attack and Defense in Constrained Feature Space

IJCAI 2022poster

The generation of feasible adversarial examples is necessary for properly assessing models that work in constrained feature space. However, it remains a challenging task to enforce constraints into attacks that were designed for computer vision. We propose a unified framework to generate feasible ad…

Adversarial Robustness in Multi-Task Learning: Promises and Illusions

AAAI 2022technical

Vulnerability to adversarial attacks is a well-known weakness of Deep Neural networks. While most of the studies focus on single-task neural networks with computer vision datasets, very little research has considered complex multi-task models that are common in real applications. In this paper, we e…

Efficient and transferable adversarial examples from bayesian neural networks

UAI 2022poster

An established way to improve the transferability of black-box evasion attacks is to craft the adversarial examples on an ensemble-based surrogate to increase diversity. We argue that transferability is fundamentally related to uncertainty. Based on a state-of-the-art Bayesian Deep Learning techniqu…

LGV: Boosting Adversarial Example Transferability from Large Geometric Vicinity

ECCV 2022poster

"We propose transferability from Large Geometric Vicinity (LGV), a new technique to increase the transferability of black-box adversarial attacks. LGV starts from a pretrained surrogate model and collects multiple weight sets from a few additional training epochs with a constant and high learning ra…
