Certified Robustness from Approximate Gaussian Mixture Structures in Pretrained Latent Spaces 文章

arXiv:2605.25352v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep learning models are vulnerable to adversarial perturbations, raising important concerns for safety-critical deployment. Empirical defenses can achieve strong robustness in practice, but lack formal guarantees, motivating the need for certifiably robust classifiers. While certified methods provide formal guarantees, they often yield overly conservative bounds due to their inability to exploit structure in complex data distributions. In this work, we propose a framework for designing certifiably robust classifiers that leverages latent structure in data representations. We first analyze the Gaussian mixture setting, deriving necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of robust classifiers and constructing a classifier with a closed-form robustness certificate and generalization guarantees.
