Invisible Intruders: Label-Consistent Backdoor Attack using Re-parameterized Noise Trigger
IEEE Transactions on Multimedia(2024)
Abstract
A remarkable number of backdoor attack methods have been proposed in the literature on deep neural networks (DNNs). However, it hasn't been sufficiently addressed in the existing methods of achieving true senseless backdoor attacks that are visually invisible and label-consistent. In this paper, we propose a new backdoor attack method where the labels of the backdoor images are perfectly aligned with their content, ensuring label consistency. Additionally, the backdoor trigger is meticulously designed, allowing the attack to evade DNN model checks and human inspection. Our approach employs an auto-encoder (AE) to conduct representation learning of benign images and interferes with salient classification features to increase the dependence of backdoor image classification on backdoor triggers. To ensure visual invisibility, we implement a method inspired by image steganography that embeds trigger patterns into the image using the DNN and enable sample-specific backdoor triggers. We conduct comprehensive experiments on multiple benchmark datasets and network architectures to verify the effectiveness of our proposed method under the metric of attack success rate and invisibility. The results also demonstrate satisfactory performance against a variety of defense methods.
