Harnessing Synthetic Data for Adversarial Robustness

In the realm of artificial intelligence (AI), robustness against adversarial attacks is a growing concern. These malicious attempts to deceive or manipulate AI systems can have severe consequences, from compromising security to making flawed predictions. To mitigate this risk, researchers are leveraging synthetic data to simulate real-world adversarial attacks, thereby fortifying AI models against potential threats.

What are Adversarial Attacks?

Adversarial attacks occur when an input, designed to mislead the AI model, causes it to produce incorrect or misleading outputs. These malicious inputs can be crafted using various techniques, such as gradient-based attacks or evolutionary algorithms. Traditional methods of mitigating these attacks involve data preprocessing, regularization techniques, or training with robust loss functions.
