Paper [1]:

White-box neural network attack, adversaries have full access to the model. Using Gradient Descent going back to update the input so that reconstructing the original training data.

 

 About black-box attack, they mentioned using numeric gradient approximation.

Question: If the model does not overfit the dataset, cannot recover the training data.

 

Paper [2]:

Proposed black-box attack via online ML-as-a-S platform, targeting to extract parameters from simple structures by solving equations. Condifence values is the key to solve these equations.

 

 

Question: However, this method seems like brute force, and it would be tough when the type and structure of model are unknown or really complex. Ex. they query 10,000 times to steal a neural network, which will be identified as hacking activity in real environment. (or too expensive to query online service)
