Improving Defensive Distillation using Teacher Assistant

Adversarial attacks pose a significant threat to the security and safety of deep neural networks being applied to modern applications. More specifically, in computer vision-based tasks, experts can use the knowledge of model architecture to create adversarial samples imperceptible to the human eye. These attacks can lead to security problems in popular applications such as self-driving cars, face recognition, etc. Hence, building networks which are robust to such attacks is highly desirable and essential. Among the various methods present in literature, defensive distillation has shown promise in recent years. Using knowledge distillation, researchers have been able to create models robust against some of those attacks. However, more attacks have been developed exposing weakness in defensive distillation. In this project, we derive inspiration from teacher assistant knowledge distillation and propose that introducing an assistant network can improve the robustness of the distilled model. Through a series of experiments, we evaluate the distilled models for different distillation temperatures in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, and robustness. Our experiments demonstrate that the proposed hypothesis can improve robustness in most cases. Additionally, we show that multi-step distillation can further improve robustness with very little impact on model accuracy.
