Randomized smoothing is currently the state-of-the-art method that provides certified robustness for deep neural networks. However, due to its excessively conservative nature, this method of incomplete verification often cannot achieve an adequate certified radius on real-world datasets. One way to obtain a larger certified radius is to use an input-specific algorithm instead of using a fixed Gaussian filter for all data points. Several methods based on this idea have been proposed, but they either suffer from high computational costs or gain marginal improvement in certified radius. In this work, we show that by exploiting the quasiconvex problem structure, we can find the optimal certified radii for most data points with slight computational overhead. This observation leads to an efficient and effective input-specific randomized smoothing algorithm. We conduct extensive experiments and empirical analysis on CIFAR-10 and ImageNet. The results show that the proposed method significantly enhances the certified radii with low computational overhead.

Safe, Robust and Responsible AI

technical paper

We are pleased to announce the Thirty-Eighth AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI-24), which will be held in Vancouver, British Columbia at the Vancouver Convention Centre – West Building from 20-27 February, 2024.

The purpose of the AAAI conference series is to promote research in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and foster scientific exchange between researchers, practitioners, scientists, students, and engineers across the entirety of AI and its affiliated disciplines. AAAI-24 will feature technical paper presentations, special tracks, invited speakers, workshops, tutorials, poster sessions, senior member presentations, competitions, and exhibit programs, and a range of other activities to be announced.

We expect for AAAI-24 to be an in-person conference – one author of all accepted papers will be expected to present work in person unless there are exceptional circumstances that prevent this.<br><br><br><br>
