Abstract
We discuss two key problems related to learning and optimization of neural networks: the computation of the adversarial attack for adversarial robustness and approximate optimization of complex functions. We show that both problems can be cast as instances of DC-programming. We give an explicit decomposition of the corresponding functions as differences of convex functions (DC) and report the results of experiments demonstrating the effectiveness of the DCA algorithm applied to these problems.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Global Optimization publishes carefully refereed papers that encompass theoretical, computational, and applied aspects of global optimization. While the focus is on original research contributions dealing with the search for global optima of non-convex, multi-extremal problems, the journal’s scope covers optimization in the widest sense, including nonlinear, mixed integer, combinatorial, stochastic, robust, multi-objective optimization, computational geometry, and equilibrium problems. Relevant works on data-driven methods and optimization-based data mining are of special interest.
In addition to papers covering theory and algorithms of global optimization, the journal publishes significant papers on numerical experiments, new testbeds, and applications in engineering, management, and the sciences. Applications of particular interest include healthcare, computational biochemistry, energy systems, telecommunications, and finance. Apart from full-length articles, the journal features short communications on both open and solved global optimization problems. It also offers reviews of relevant books and publishes special issues.
