Abstract

3D models based on deep neural networks have made significant progress on clean datasets. However, their vulnerability to adversarial examples has led to security risks in practical applications. To address this issue, a novel adversarial training method for 3D object tracking is proposed. First, we leverage the explainability method to reveal the contribution of each point in the model input to the model prediction and study the change in the decision of the model after the attack, exploring the correlation between the sensitivity of a point to attack and its importance. Then, adversarial examples corresponding to clean samples are added during the training of model to generate a robust target model. The target model is encouraged to align the contributions of corresponding points in clean samples and adversarial samples, ensuring the consistency of the model's decisions when facing adversarial examples. Furthermore, a policy model is introduced to dynamically adjust the parameters required for generating adversarial examples to ensure their effectiveness, which can further improve the robustness of the model. Extensive experiments on multiple datasets demonstrate that this approach enables existing models to achieve better performance against advanced adversarial attacks compared to other defense methods. This demonstrates that the proposed explainability-based adversarial training method provides a feasible and efficient solution for improving the robustness of 3D object tracking models.
