Adversarial Attacks on the Interpretation of Neuron Activation Maximization

Feature visualization is one of the most popular techniques used to interpret the internal behavior of individual units of trained deep neur… (voir plus)al networks. Based on activation maximization, they consist of finding synthetic or natural inputs that maximize neuron activations. This paper introduces an optimization framework that aims to deceive feature visualization through adversarial model manipulation. It consists of finetuning a pre-trained model with a specifically introduced loss that aims to maintain model performance, while also significantly changing feature visualization. We provide evidence of the success of this manipulation on several pre-trained models for the classification task with ImageNet.
