- Abstract
In semantic segmentation, category-hidden attack is a malicious adversarial attack which manipulates a specific category without affecting the recognition of other objects. A popular method is the nearest-neighbor algorithm, which modifies the segmentation map by replacing a target category with other categories close to it. Nearest-neighbor method aims to restrict the strength of perturbation noise that is imperceptive to both human eyes and segmentation algorithms. However, its spatial search adds lots of computational burden. In this paper, we propose two fast methods, dot-based method and line-based method, which are able to quickly complete the category transfers in logits maps without spatial search. The advantages of our two methods result from generating the logits maps by modifying the probability distribution of the category channels. Both of our methods are global, and the location and size of objects to hide are not cared, so their processing speed is very fast. The dot-based algorithm takes the pixel as the unit of calculation, and the line-based algorithm combines the category distribution characteristics of the horizontal direction to calculate. Experiments verify the effectiveness and efficiency compared with nearest-neighbor method. Specifically, in the segmentation map modification step, our methods are 5 times and 65 times faster than nearest-neighbor, respectively. In the small perturbation attack experiment, dot-based method gets the fastest speed, while different datasets and different setting experiments indicate that the line-based method is able to achieve faster and better adversarial segmentation results in most cases.
