The proposed ARNAS framework searches for accurate and robust architectures for adversarial training. By designing an accurate and robust search space, the architecture can obtain both accuracy and robustness by deploying accurate and robust structures to their sensitive positions. A differentiable multi-objective search strategy is also proposed, which performs gradient descent towards directions that are beneficial for both natural loss and adversarial loss. Experimental results show that the searched architecture has strong robustness with competitive accuracy, and breaks the traditional idea that NAS-based architectures cannot transfer well to complex tasks in robustness scenarios. The framework can be applied to hand-crafting and automatically designing of accurate and robust architectures.

The paper proposes a new way to design neural networks that are good at defending against cyber attacks. Instead of just trying to make the network more accurate, it also tries to make it more robust by using different parts of the network in different ways. This helps the network to be better at handling unexpected inputs and to be more resistant to attacks. The paper shows that this approach can lead to networks that are both very accurate and very robust, which is important for applications where security is a top priority.
