Title: Adversarial Examples: Attacks and Defenses for Deep Learning,
Abstract: With rapid progress and significant successes in a wide spectrum of
applications, deep learning is being applied in many safety-critical
environments. However, deep neural networks have been recently found vulnerable
to well-designed input samples, called adversarial examples. Adversarial
examples are imperceptible to human but can easily fool deep neural networks in
the testing/deploying stage. The vulnerability to adversarial examples becomes
one of the major risks for applying deep neural networks in safety-critical
environments. Therefore, attacks and defenses on adversarial examples draw
great attention. In this paper, we review recent findings on adversarial
examples for deep neural networks, summarize the methods for generating
adversarial examples, and propose a taxonomy of these methods. Under the
taxonomy, applications for adversarial examples are investigated. We further
elaborate on countermeasures for adversarial examples and explore the
challenges and the potential solutions.
