Quantum-inspired analysis of neural network vulnerabilities: the role of conjugate variables in system attacks
Jun-Jie Zhang,
Deyu Meng
Abstract:Neural networks demonstrate vulnerability to small, non-random perturbations, emerging as adversarial attacks. Such attacks, born from the gradient of the loss function relative to the input, are discerned as input conjugates, revealing a systemic fragility within the network structure. Intriguingly, a mathematical congruence manifests between this mechanism and the quantum physics’ uncertainty principle, casting light on a hitherto unanticipated interdisciplinarity. This inherent susceptibility within neural … Show more
