| Résumé : |
This thesis explores Genetic Algorithms (GAs) for complex optimization, focusing on black-box adversarial attacks against Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). These attacks generate subtle input perturbations to induce misclassification. GAs are well-suited due to their gradient-free nature and ability to navigate complex search spaces. The POBA-GA framework is introduced, customizing GA components like a specialized fitness function (balancing attack success and minimal perturbation) and a novel perceptibility metric, Z(A). POBA-GA's success highlights GAs' versatility, machine learning vulnerabilities, and the need for robust defense mechanisms. |
