Abstract

A detection device includes processing circuitry configured to acquire data to be detected and normal reference data, calculate a Learned Perceptual Image Patch Similarity (LPIPS) distance between the acquired data and the reference data, and classify the acquired data into either a Clean Sample or an Adversarial Example by using the calculated LPIPS distance.

Claims (25)

1 . A detection device comprising:

processing circuitry configured to:

acquire data to be detected;

acquire normal reference data separately from the data to be detected;

calculate a Learned Perceptual Image Patch Similarity (LPIPS) distance between the acquired data and the reference data; and

classify the acquired data into either a Clean Sample or an Adversarial Example by using the calculated LPIPS distance,

wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to determine a minimum value among a plurality of calculated LPIPS distances and to classify the acquired data using the determined minimum value.

2 . The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to classify the acquired data into either a normal Clean Sample or an abnormal Adversarial Example by using a model for classifying the data into normal or abnormal, using the calculated LPIPS distance as an abnormality score.

3 . The detection device according to claim 2 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to learn the model for classifying data into normal or abnormal, using the calculated LPIPS distance as an abnormality score.

4 . The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to acquire a sign photographed by a camera, as the data to be detected, and

detect an Adversarial Example.

5 . A detection method to be executed by a detection device, the detection method comprising:

acquiring data to be detected;

acquiring normal reference data separately from the data to be detected;

calculating a Learned Perceptual Image Patch Similarity (LPIPS) distance between the acquired data and the reference data; and

classifying the acquired data into either a Clean Sample or an Adversarial Example by using the calculated LPIPS distance,

wherein a minimum value among a plurality of calculated LPIPS distances is determined and the acquired data is classified using the determined minimum value.

6 . A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing therein a detection program that causes a computer to execute a process comprising:

acquiring data to be detected;

acquiring normal reference data separately from the data to be detected;

calculating a Learned Perceptual Image Patch Similarity (LPIPS) distance between the acquired data and the reference data; and

classifying the acquired data into either a Clean Sample or an Adversarial Example by using the calculated LPIPS distance,

wherein a minimum value among a plurality of calculated LPIPS distances is determined and the acquired data is classified using the determined minimum value.

7 . The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to acquire a prediction class of the data to be detected.

8 . The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein the detection device is incorporated into an autonomous vehicle.
