Label Noise in Adversarial Training: A Novel Perspective to Study Robust Overfitting

Chengyu Dong, Liyuan Liu, Jingbo Shang

We show that label noise exists in adversarial training. Such label noise is due to the mismatch between the true label distribution of adversarial examples and the label inherited…
