Generate Universal Adversarial Perturbations for Few-Shot Learning

Neural Information Processing Systems

Deep networks are known to be vulnerable to adversarial examples which are deliberately designed to mislead the trained model by introducing imperceptible perturbations to input samples. Compared to traditional perturbations crafted specifically for each data point, Universal Adversarial Perturbations (UAPs) are input-agnostic and shown to be more practical in the real world. However, UAPs are typically generated in a close-set scenario that shares the same classification task during the training and testing phases. This paper demonstrates the ineffectiveness of traditional UAPs in open-set scenarios like Few-Shot Learning (FSL). Through analysis, we identify two primary challenges that hinder the attacking process: the task shift and the semantic shift.
