Elytra: A Flexible Framework for Securing Large Vision Systems

ArXi:2506.00661v3 Announce Type: replace Adversarial attacks have emerged as a critical threat to autonomous driving systems. These attacks exploit the underlying neural network, allowing small, almost invisible, perturbations to alter the behavior of such systems in potentially malicious ways, e.g., causing a traffic sign classification network to misclassify a stop sign as a speed limit sign. Prior work in hardening such systems against adversarial attacks has looked at fine-tuning of the system or adding additional pre-processing steps to the input pipeline.
