DYNAMIC DEFENSES AND THE TRANSFERABILITY OF ADVERSARIAL EXAMPLES
… machine learning; specifically, the property of transferability, and the use of dynamic defenses as a solution to attacks which leverage it. We show that this is an emerging field of research, which may be the solution to one of the most intractable problems in adversarial machine learning. We go …
