Prototype-Guided Robust Learning against Backdoor Attacks

Wei Guo, Maura Pintor, Ambra Demontis +1

Backdoor attacks poison the training data, causing the model to behave normally on clean inputs but predict attacker-chosen labels when trigger patterns are embedded into the input…

Silent Until Sparse: Backdoor Attacks on Semi-Structured Sparsity

Wei Guo, Fabio Brau, Maura Pintor +2

Semi-structured (2:4) sparsity is a widely adopted pruning method in modern hardware and software ecosystems (e.g., NVIDIA Sparse Tensor Cores and PyTorch), achieving up to 2X fast…

ImageNet-Patch: A Dataset for Benchmarking Machine Learning Robustness against Adversarial Patches

Maura Pintor, Daniele Angioni, Angelo Sotgiu +4

Adversarial patches are optimized contiguous pixel blocks in an input image that cause a machine-learning model to misclassify it. However, their optimization is computationally de…
