In a breakthrough for natural language processing tasks, multimodal techniques have gained popularity. However, they are vulnerable to adversarial attacks that dramatically change model outputs with small input perturbations. Despite defense techniques in computer vision and NLP models, the robustness of multimodal models remains unexplored. This paper investigates modifying pre-trained multimodal loss functions by restricting top K softmax outputs for improved adversarial robustness against popular attacks. Our experiments show significant improvement through fine-tuning. Future research should explore output diversity, generalization, and the robustness-performance trade-off of this loss function. We will release our code after acceptance.

Large language models are getting better at understanding natural languages. But, they’re also very sensitive to small changes in what we give them as input. This makes it easy for someone to trick the model into giving a wrong answer. To fix this, researchers have tried different ways to make the model more robust. In this paper, scientists looked at how changing the way the model calculates its answers can help make it less susceptible to these tricks. They found that by tweaking the calculations, they could make the model much better at resisting these attacks. This is an important area of study because as AI gets better and better, we need to make sure it’s not too easy to manipulate.
