Boosting Adversarial Transferability through Augmentation in Hypothesis Space
Adversarial examples can mislead deep neural networks with subtle perturbations, causing them to make incorrect predictions. Notably, adversarial examples crafted for one model can also deceive other models, a phenomenon known as the transferability of adversarial examples. To improve transferability, existing studies have designed increasingly complex mechanisms, but the improvements achieved remain relatively limited and are often difficult to adapt to other modalities, further restricting the scalability of these methods. In this work, we observe a mirroring relationship between model generalization and adversarial example transferability. Motivated by this observation, we propose an augmentation-based attack, called OPS (Operator-Perturbation-based Stochastic optimization), which constructs a stochastic optimization problem by input transformation operators and random perturbations, and solves this problem to generate adversarial examples with better transferability. Extensive experiments on both images and 3D point clouds demonstrate that OPS significantly outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods in terms of both performance and cost, showcasing the universality and superiority of our approach.
