| Περιγραφή: | The spread of artificial intelligence and machine learning is accompanied by an increase in the number of vulnerabilities and threats in systems implementing such technologies. Attacks based on malicious perturbations pose a significant threat to such systems. Various solutions have been developed to protect against them, including an approach to detecting L0- optimized attacks on neural image processing networks using statistical analysis methods and an algorithm for detecting such attacks by threshold clipping. The disadvantage of the threshold clipping algorithm is the need to determine the value of the parameter (cutoff threshold) to detect various attacks and take into account the specifics of the data sets, which makes it difficult to apply in practice. This article describes a method for detecting L0-optimized attacks on neural image processing networks through statistical analysis of the distribution of anomaly scores. To identify the distortion inherent in L0-optimized attacks, deviations from the nearest neighbors and Mahalanobis distances are determined. Based on their values, a matrix of pixel anomaly scores is calculated. It is assumed that the statistical distribution of pixel anomaly scores is different for attacked and non-attacked images and for perturbations embedded in various attacks. In this case, attacks can be detected by analyzing the statistical characteristics of the distribution of anomaly scores. The obtained characteristics are used as predictors for training anomaly detection and image classification models. The method was tested on the CIFAR-10, MNIST and ImageNet datasets. The developed method demonstrated the high quality of attack detection and classification. On the CIFAR-10 dataset, the accuracy of detecting attacks (anomalies) was 98.43 %, while the binary and multiclass classifications were 99.51 % and 99.07 %, respectively. Despite the fact that the accuracy of anomaly detection is lower than that of a multiclass classification, the method allows it to be used to distinguish fundamentally similar attacks that are not contained in the training sample. Only input data is used to detect and classify attacks, as a result of which the proposed method can potentially be used regardless of the architecture of the model or the presence of the target neural network. The method can be applied for detecting images distorted by L0-optimized attacks in a training sample. |
