Random noise doesn't simplify exact ReLU network verification

A new research paper explores the complexity of verifying Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU) neural networks under adversarial smoothing. The study demonstrates that adding random parameter noise, clipping, and rounding network weights does not simplify the exact verification process. The findings suggest that, assuming NP is not a subset of BPP, no efficient verifier can exist for all base instances, even with a fixed noise level for certain network configurations. AI

IMPACT This research indicates that adversarial smoothing techniques may not offer a straightforward path to efficient verification of neural networks.
