Correction: Adversarial defence by learning differentiated feature representation in deep ensemble

Deep learning models have been shown to be vulnerable to critical attacks under adversarial conditions. Attackers are able to generate powerful adversarial examples by searching for adversarial perturbations, without interfering with model training or directly modifying the model. This phenomenon indicates an endogenous problem in existing deep learning frameworks. Therefore, optimizing individual models for defense is often limited and can always be defeated by new attack methods. Ensemble defense has been shown to be effective in defending against adversarial attacks by combining diverse models. However, the problem of insufficient differentiation among existing models persists. Active defense in cyberspace security has successfully defended against unknown vulnerabilities by integrating subsystems with multiple different implementations to achieve a unified mission objective. Inspired by this, we propose exploring the feasibility of achieving model differentiation by changing the data features used in training individual models, as they are the core factor of functional implementation. We utilize several feature extraction methods to preprocess the data and train differentiated models based on these features. By generating adversarial perturbations to attack different models, we demonstrate that the feature representation of the data is highly resistant to adversarial perturbations. The entire ensemble is able to operate normally in an error-bearing environment.
