In our ICML’20 paper, confidence-calibrated adversarial training (CCAT) addresses two problems of “regular” adversarial training. First, robustness against adversarial examples unseen during training is improved and second, clean accuracy is increased. CCAT biases the model towards predicting low-confidence on adversarial examples such that adversarial examples can be rejected by confidence thresholding. This article shares my talk on CCAT as recorded for ICML’20.
Many papers and theses provide high-level overviews of the proposed methods. Nowadays, in computer vision, natural language processing or similar research areas strongly driven by deep learning, these illustrations commonly include architectures of the used (convolutional) neural network. In this article, I want to provide a collection of examples using LaTeX and TikZ to produce nice figures of (convolutional) neural networks. All the discussed examples can also be found on GitHub.
