JOB DESCRIPTION AND POSITION REQUIREMENTS:
Computer Science and Engineering seeks to hire multiple parttime research interns.
Interns will Implement a successful gradientfree testtime evasion attack against a classifier trained for the MNIST domain.
Approaches to gradientfree testtime evasion attacks can be found in a paper that has been added to the courses Extra Materials. You are asked to implement in Matlab an algorithm to perform gradientfree TTE attacks (targeted attacks). You should attack each test sample and misclassify it to a (randomly chosen) target class. You should report the attack success rate and the average number of classifier queries needed to achieve a successful attack. You should display representative attacked image examples to show whether the attack is perceptible or imperceptible. You should consider at least two different gradientfree attack algorithms or two variants of the same algorithm. Also suggest a simple algorithm for detecting attacks and reports its performance (true detection rate at a fixed false positive rate or ROC AUC curve by varying the true detection rate versus false positive rate by changing the detection threshold).
