📝 摘要(中文)
视觉语言预训练(VLP)模型在理解图像和文本方面表现出色,但仍然容易受到多模态对抗样本(AEs)的攻击。加强攻击并揭示VLP模型的脆弱性,尤其是高可转移性对抗样本的问题,可以推动更可靠的VLP模型的发展。本文提出了一种新方法,通过在对抗轨迹的交叉区域进行多样化,增强对抗样本的多样性,从而提高其在不同VLP模型和下游视觉语言任务中的可转移性。实验结果表明,该方法显著改善了对抗样本的可转移性。

📄 摘要(原文)
Vision-language pre-training (VLP) models exhibit remarkable capabilities in comprehending both images and text, yet they remain susceptible to multimodal adversarial examples (AEs). Strengthening attacks and uncovering vulnerabilities, especially common issues in VLP models (e.g., high transferable AEs), can advance reliable and practical VLP models. A recent work (i.e., Set-level guidance attack) indicates that augmenting image-text pairs to increase AE diversity along the optimization path enhances the transferability of adversarial examples significantly. However, this approach predominantly emphasizes diversity around the online adversarial examples (i.e., AEs in the optimization period), leading to the risk of overfitting the victim model and affecting the transferability. In this study, we posit that the diversity of adversarial examples towards the clean input and online AEs are both pivotal for enhancing transferability across VLP models. Consequently, we propose using diversification along the intersection region of adversarial trajectory to expand the diversity of AEs. To fully leverage the interaction between modalities, we introduce text-guided adversarial example selection during optimization. Furthermore, to further mitigate the potential overfitting, we direct the adversarial text deviating from the last intersection region along the optimization path, rather than adversarial images as in existing methods. Extensive experiments affirm the effectiveness of our method in improving transferability across various VLP models and downstream vision-and-language tasks.
