Universal adversarial example construction against autonomous vehicle

Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) have seen a rapid pace of development and made significant strides in technological capabilities. While AVs do not suffer from human error, they are not immune to other types of errors and even more worryingly, malicious attacks. Most AVs today utilize multiple machine lear...

description Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) have seen a rapid pace of development and made significant strides in technological capabilities. While AVs do not suffer from human error, they are not immune to other types of errors and even more worryingly, malicious attacks. Most AVs today utilize multiple machine learning models which may or may not be resistant against adversarial attacks. A white-box attack conducted using Universal Adversarial Perturbations (Iterative-DeepFool) on the traffic light recognition component of the Baidu Apollo Autonomous Driving System (ADS) platform revealed that the model failed to hold up in conditions other than daylight. Furthermore, the perturbation is imperceptible to the human eye, posing an even greater safety risk. We also explore the current safeguards in place in Apollo and hypothesize potential solutions to mitigate this issue.
