Boosting the Local Invariance for Better Adversarial Transferability

ArXi:2503.06140v2 Announce Type: replace Transfer-based attacks pose a significant threat to real-world applications by directly targeting victim models with adversarial examples generated on surrogate models. While numerous approaches have been proposed to enhance adversarial transferability, existing works often overlook the intrinsic relationship between adversarial perturbations and input images. In this work, we find that adversarial perturbation often exhibits poor translation invariance for a given clean image and model, which is attributed to local invariance.
