Counterfactual-based Saliency Map: Towards Visual Contrastive Explanations for Neural Networks

no code implementations ICCV 2023 Xue Wang, Zhibo Wang, Haiqin Weng, Hengchang Guo, Zhifei Zhang, Lu Jin, Tao Wei, Kui Ren

Considering the insufficient study on such complex causal questions, we make the first attempt to explain different causal questions by contrastive explanations in a unified framework, ie., Counterfactual Contrastive Explanation (CCE), which visually and intuitively explains the aforementioned questions via a novel positive-negative saliency-based explanation scheme.

SmartBrush: Text and Shape Guided Object Inpainting with Diffusion Model

no code implementations CVPR 2023 Shaoan Xie, Zhifei Zhang, Zhe Lin, Tobias Hinz, Kun Zhang

By contrast, multi-modal inpainting provides more flexible and useful controls on the inpainted content, \eg, a text prompt can be used to describe an object with richer attributes, and a mask can be used to constrain the shape of the inpainted object rather than being only considered as a missing area.

Vanilla Feature Distillation for Improving the Accuracy-Robustness Trade-Off in Adversarial Training

no code implementations5 Jun 2022 Guodong Cao, Zhibo Wang, Xiaowei Dong, Zhifei Zhang, Hengchang Guo, Zhan Qin, Kui Ren

However, most existing works are still trapped in the dilemma between higher accuracy and stronger robustness since they tend to fit a model towards robust features (not easily tampered with by adversaries) while ignoring those non-robust but highly predictive features.

Beyond Inferring Class Representatives: User-Level Privacy Leakage From Federated Learning

Although the state-of-the-art attacking techniques that incorporated the advance of Generative adversarial networks (GANs) could construct class representatives of the global data distribution among all clients, it is still challenging to distinguishably attack a specific client (i. e., user-level privacy leakage), which is a stronger privacy threat to precisely recover the private data from a specific client.
