[EX Q]: Neural networks with low-precision weights and activations offer compelling
 efficiency advantages over their full-precision equivalents. The two most
 frequently discussed benefits of quantization are reduced memory consumption,
 and a faster forward pass when implemented with efficient bitwise
 operations. We propose a third benefit of very low-precision neural networks:
 improved robustness against some adversarial attacks, and in the worst case,
 performance that is on par with full-precision models. We focus on the very
 low-precision case where weights and activations are both quantized to $\pm$1,
 and note that stochastically quantizing weights in just one layer can sharply
 reduce the impact of iterative attacks. We observe that non-scaled binary neural
 networks exhibit a similar effect to the original \emph{defensive distillation}
 procedure that led to \emph{gradient masking}, and a false notion of security.
 We address this by conducting both black-box and white-box experiments with
 binary models that do not artificially mask gradients.
[EX A]: We conduct adversarial attacks against binarized neural networks and show that we reduce the impact of the strongest attacks, while maintaining comparable accuracy in a black-box setting

[EX Q]: Deep learning algorithms have been known to be vulnerable to adversarial perturbations in various tasks such as image classification. This problem was addressed by employing several defense methods for detection and rejection of particular types of attacks. However, training and manipulating networks according to particular defense schemes increases computational complexity of the learning algorithms. In this work, we propose a simple yet effective method to improve robustness of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to adversarial attacks by using data dependent adaptive convolution kernels. To this end, we propose a new type of HyperNetwork in order to employ statistical properties of input data and features for computation of statistical adaptive maps. Then, we filter convolution weights of CNNs with the learned statistical maps to compute dynamic kernels. Thereby, weights and kernels are collectively optimized for learning of image classification models robust to
 adversarial attacks without employment of additional target detection and rejection algorithms.
 We empirically demonstrate that the proposed method enables CNNs to spontaneously defend against different types of attacks, e.g. attacks generated by Gaussian noise, fast gradient sign methods (Goodfellow et al., 2014) and a black-box attack (Narodytska & Kasiviswanathan, 2016).
[EX A]: We modified the CNN using HyperNetworks and observed better robustness against adversarial examples.

[EX Q]: We present a graph neural network assisted Monte Carlo Tree Search approach for the classical traveling salesman problem (TSP). We adopt a greedy algorithm framework to construct the optimal solution to TSP by adding the nodes successively. A graph neural network (GNN) is trained to capture the local and global graph structure and give the prior probability of selecting each vertex every step. The prior probability provides a heuristics for MCTS, and the MCTS output is an improved probability for selecting the successive vertex, as it is the feedback information by fusing the prior with the scouting procedure. Experimental results on TSP up to 100 nodes demonstrate that the proposed method obtains shorter tours than other learning-based methods.
