Statistical Adversaries: Natural Backdoor-like Features in Vision Datasets
arXiv:2607. 05516v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Model-specific adversarial attacks have been extensively studied.
Statistical Adversaries: Natural Backdoor-like Features in Vision Datasets
Model-specific adversarial attacks have been extensively studied. We study a different failure mode: naturally occurring statistical signals in vision data that can behave like backdoor-like triggers without being maliciously inserted.
