The paper studies how small, targeted changes to model parameters affect classical machine learning models (HMM and SVM) versus deep learning models (MLP and LSTM). Using the Drebin Android malware dataset, it finds that classical models are brittle, with a few parameter changes dramatically altering behavior, and have limited steganographic capacity. In contrast, neural networks are parameter‑redundant, allowing many parameters to be altered with minimal impact, thus supporting higher steganographic capacity.

arXiv:2505. 03646v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Adversarial robustness of deep autoencoders (AEs) has received less attention than that of discriminative models, although their compressed latent representations induce ill-conditioned mappings that can amplify small input perturbations and destabilize reconstructions.
Large language models (LLMs) are vulnerable to backdoor attacks, where hidden triggers induce malicious outputs. Existing defenses generally fall into inference-time detection or training-time mitigation, but face two key limitations.

The paper introduces Replicant, a deep reinforcement learning framework that learns to evade malware detectors under a strict label‑only black‑box threat model. Replicant generates reusable policies for modifying malware samples and deciding when to query the target, and it transfers across different samples, detectors, and feature spaces. In experiments on seven Android malware detectors and three feature spaces, Replicant achieves a mean attack success rate of 78.8%, outperforming state‑of‑the‑art methods by 20.9%–39.2% and providing a stronger signal for adversarial training to harden detectors.
