Class Retrieval of Detected Adversarial Attacks.

Adversarial attack is a genuine threat compromising the safety of many intelligent systems curbing the standardization of using neural networks in security-critical applications. Since the emergence of adversarial attacks, the research community has worked relentlessly to avert the malicious damage of these attacks. Here, we present a new, additional and required element to ameliorate adversarial attacks: the recovery of the original class after a detected attack. Recovering the original class of an adversarial sample without taking any precautions is an uncharted concept which we would like to introduce with our novel class retrieval algorithm. As case studies, we demonstrate the validity of our approach on MNIST, CIFAR10 and ImageNet datasets where recovery rates were 72 % , 65 % and 65 % , respectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
