A Noise-Sensitivity-Analysis-Based Test Prioritization Technique for Deep Neural NetworksLong Zhang, Xuechao Sun, Yong Li et al.
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have been widely used in the fields such as natural language processing, computer vision and image recognition. But several studies have been shown that deep neural networks can be easily fooled by artificial examples with some perturbations, which are widely known as adversarial examples. Adversarial examples can be used to attack deep neural networks or to improve the robustness of deep neural networks. A common way of generating adversarial examples is to first generate some noises and then add them into original examples. In practice, different examples have different noise-sensitive. To generate an effective adversarial example, it may be necessary to add a lot of noise to low noise-sensitive example, which may make the adversarial example meaningless. In this paper, we propose a noise-sensitivity-analysis-based test prioritization technique to pick out examples by their noise sensitivity. We construct an experiment to validate our approach on four image sets and two DNN models, which shows that examples are sensitive to noise and our method can effectively pick out examples by their noise sensitivity.

When Work Matters: Transforming Classical Network Structures to Graph CNNWenting Zhao, Chunyan Xu, Zhen Cui et al.
Numerous pattern recognition applications can be formed as learning from graph-structured data, including social network, protein-interaction network, the world wide web data, knowledge graph, etc. While convolutional neural network (CNN) facilitates great advances in gridded image/video understanding tasks, very limited attention has been devoted to transform these successful network structures (including Inception net, Residual net, Dense net, etc.) to establish convolutional networks on graph, due to its irregularity and complexity geometric topologies (unordered vertices, unfixed number of adjacent edges/vertices). In this paper, we aim to give a comprehensive analysis of when work matters by transforming different classical network structures to graph CNN, particularly in the basic graph recognition problem. Specifically, we firstly review the general graph CNN methods, especially in its spectral filtering operation on the irregular graph data. We then introduce the basic structures of ResNet, Inception and DenseNet into graph CNN and construct these network structures on graph, named as G_ResNet, G_Inception, G_DenseNet. In particular, it seeks to help graph CNNs by shedding light on how these classical network structures work and providing guidelines for choosing appropriate graph network frameworks. Finally, we comprehensively evaluate the performance of these different network structures on several public graph datasets (including social networks and bioinformatic datasets), and demonstrate how different network structures work on graph CNN in the graph recognition task.
