Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Here, I proposed to tackle the robustness of DNNs by evaluating and improving the internal representation learned by DNNs. Regarding the evaluation of the internal representation of DNNs, we discovered that the transferability of features links to robustness to adversarial attacks. In other words, the better the transfer of features the better the robustness to adversarial attacks. We also proposed K-spectrum which can evaluate and visualize multiple layers of DNNs together in a graph, allowing for easy inspection of how their shapes are in multi-dimensional space. Regarding the improvement of the internal representation of DNNs, we have developed as described in the proposition a GAN based system to improve the network robustness. The system outperformed the state-of-the-art and is being submitted to a journal now. Results of this research were published in journals and proceedings, more than 13 articles in total.
