📝 摘要(中文)
深度神经网络(DNN)在机器学习的最新进展中发挥了重要作用,但研究表明,DNN对对抗样本存在脆弱性,这些样本经过扰动后会导致模型错误预测。对抗性机器学习(AdvML)因此受到广泛关注。与此同时,DNN还可能嵌入偏见,产生不可解释的预测,导致反社会的人工智能应用。随着大型语言模型(LLM)的出现,反社会应用的风险进一步增加。对抗性机器学习促进社会公益(AdvML4G)是一个新兴领域,旨在利用AdvML的缺陷开发社会公益应用。本文首次全面回顾了AdvML4G领域,提出了分类法,探讨了AdvML4G与AdvML之间的异同,分析了其动机,并总结了利用AdvML4G创新社会公益应用的相关工作,同时指出了需要研究社区关注的挑战和开放研究问题。

📄 摘要(原文)
Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have been the driving force behind many of the recent advances in machine learning. However, research has shown that DNNs are vulnerable to adversarial examples -- input samples that have been perturbed to force DNN-based models to make errors. As a result, Adversarial Machine Learning (AdvML) has gained a lot of attention, and researchers have investigated these vulnerabilities in various settings and modalities. In addition, DNNs have also been found to incorporate embedded bias and often produce unexplainable predictions, which can result in anti-social AI applications. The emergence of new AI technologies that leverage Large Language Models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT and GPT-4, increases the risk of producing anti-social applications at scale. AdvML for Social Good (AdvML4G) is an emerging field that repurposes the AdvML bug to invent pro-social applications. Regulators, practitioners, and researchers should collaborate to encourage the development of pro-social applications and hinder the development of anti-social ones. In this work, we provide the first comprehensive review of the emerging field of AdvML4G. This paper encompasses a taxonomy that highlights the emergence of AdvML4G, a discussion of the differences and similarities between AdvML4G and AdvML, a taxonomy covering social good-related concepts and aspects, an exploration of the motivations behind the emergence of AdvML4G at the intersection of ML4G and AdvML, and an extensive summary of the works that utilize AdvML4G as an auxiliary tool for innovating pro-social applications. Finally, we elaborate upon various challenges and open research issues that require significant attention from the research community.
