SemDiff: Generating Natural Unrestricted Adversarial Examples via Semantic Attributes Optimization in Diffusion Models

arXiv · · CV Research

This paper introduces SemDiff, a novel method for generating unrestricted adversarial examples (UAEs) by exploring the semantic latent space of diffusion models. SemDiff uses multi-attribute optimization to ensure attack success while preserving the naturalness and imperceptibility of generated UAEs. Experiments on high-resolution datasets demonstrate SemDiff's superior performance compared to state-of-the-art methods in attack success rate and imperceptibility, while also evading defenses.
