Popis: Benefiting from the robust feature representation capability of convolutional neural networks (CNNs), the object detection technology of intelligent high-altitude UAV remote sensing has been developed rapidly. In this field, the adversarial examples (AEs) pose serious security risks and vulnerabilities to deep learning-based systems. Due to the limitation of object size, image degradation, and scene brightness, adding adversarial disturbances to small and dense objects is extremely challenging. To study the threat of AE for UAV object detection, a dynamic bi-level integrated attack (DBI-Attack) is proposed for intensive multi-scale UAV object detection. Firstly, we use the dynamic iterative attack (DIA) method to generate perturbation on the classification level by improving the momentum iterative fast gradient sign method (MIM). Secondly, the bi-level adversarial attack method (BAAM) is constructed to add global perturbation on the decision level for completing the white-box attack. Finally, the integrated black-box attack method (IBAM) is combined to realize the black-box mislabeling and fabrication attacks. We experiment on the real drone traffic vehicle detection datasets to better evaluate the attack effectiveness. The experimental results show that the proposed method can achieve mislabeling and fabrication attacks on the UAV object detectors in black-box conditions. Furthermore, the adversarial training is applied to improve the model robustness. This work aims to call more attention to the adversarial and defensive aspects of UAV target detection models.
