Abstract
Abstract Deep learning models are easily deceived by adversarial examples, and transferable attacks are crucial because of the inaccessibility of model information. Existing SOTA attack approaches tend to destroy important features of objects to generate adversarial examples. This paper proposes the split grid mask attack (SGMA), which reduces the intensity of model-specific features by split grid mask transformation, effectively highlighting the important features of the input image. Perturbing these important features can guide the development of adversarial examples in a more transferable direction. Specifically, we introduce the split grid mask transformation into the input image. Due to the vulnerability of model-specific features to image transformations, the intensity of model-specific features decreases after aggregation while the intensities of important features remain. The generated adversarial examples guided by destroying important features have excellent transferability. Extensive experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed SGMA. Compared to the SOTA attack approaches, our method improves the black-box attack success rates by an average of 6.4% and 8.2% against the normally trained models and the defense ones respectively.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
