Evolutionary generation of adversarial examples for deep and shallow machine learning models

Petra Vidnerová, Roman Neruda · 2016

Studying vulnerability of machine learning models to adversarial examples is an important way to understand their robustness and generalization properties. In this paper, we propose a genetic algorithm for generating adversarial examples for machine learning models. Such approach is able to find adversarial examples without the access to model's parameters. Different models are tested, including both deep and shallow neural networks architectures. We show that RBF networks and SVMs with RBF kernels tend to be rather robust and not prone to misclassification of adversarial examples.
