CLIPure: Purification in Latent Space via CLIP for Adversarially Robust Zero-Shot Classification

ICLR 2025poster

In this paper, we aim to build an adversarially robust zero-shot image classifier that can accurately and efficiently classify unseen examples while defending against unforeseen adversarial attacks, addressing critical challenges in real-world safety-sensitive scenarios. To achieve this, we focus on…

NAPPure: Adversarial Purification for Robust Image Classification under Non-Additive Perturbations

ICCV 2025poster

Adversarial purification has achieved great success in combating adversarial image perturbations, which are usually assumed to be additive. However, non-additive adversarial perturbations such as blur, occlusion, and distortion are also common in the real world. Under such perturbations, existing ad…

CausalDiff: Causality-Inspired Disentanglement via Diffusion Model for Adversarial Defense

NeurIPS 2024poster

Despite ongoing efforts to defend neural classifiers from adversarial attacks, they remain vulnerable, especially to unseen attacks. In contrast, humans are difficult to be cheated by subtle manipulations, since we make judgments only based on essential factors. Inspired by this observation, we atte…

Perturbation-Invariant Adversarial Training for Neural Ranking Models: Improving the Effectiveness-Robustness Trade-Off

AAAI 2024technical

Neural ranking models (NRMs) have shown great success in information retrieval (IR). But their predictions can easily be manipulated using adversarial examples, which are crafted by adding imperceptible perturbations to legitimate documents. This vulnerability raises significant concerns about their…
