Class-Conditional Neural Polarizer: A Lightweight and Effective Backdoor Defense by Purifying Poisoned Features

Mingli Zhu, Shaokui Wei, Hongyuan Zha +1

Recent studies have highlighted the vulnerability of deep neural networks to backdoor attacks, where models are manipulated to rely on embedded triggers within poisoned samples, de…

Revisiting the Auxiliary Data in Backdoor Purification

Shaokui Wei, Shanchao Yang, Jiayin Liu +1

Backdoor attacks occur when an attacker subtly manipulates machine learning models during the training phase, leading to unintended behaviors when specific triggers are present. To…

Unveiling and Mitigating Backdoor Vulnerabilities based on Unlearning Weight Changes and Backdoor Activeness

Weilin Lin, Li Liu, Shaokui Wei +2

The security threat of backdoor attacks is a central concern for deep neural networks (DNNs). Recently, without poisoned data, unlearning models with clean data and then learning a…
