A new research paper investigates the effectiveness of preprocessing defenses against adversarial attacks on edge vision systems, particularly focusing on depthwise-separable CNNs which are common in such deployments. The study found that these defenses, while standard, perform poorly on depthwise-separable architectures compared to residual or Inception-class architectures. However, the research also identified an opportunity for detection: the same output divergence that hinders defense effectiveness can be used to identify adversarial inputs without retraining models. The paper also highlights that standard image quality metrics are unreliable for evaluating defense effectiveness. AI
