Exploring Solver-Level Warmstarting for Neural Network Verification

Neural network verification has become a key tool for providing formal guarantees on the behaviour of neural networks. However, many verification problems remain computationally intractable in the worst case: even for common adversarial robustness specifications, verification is NP-complete. Here, we explore the application of solver-level warmstarting for neural network verification to exploit information from previous solutions. We study the effect on running time as several properties are modified, including perturbation radii, input data and the networks themselves, using a pipeline that is generalisable and potentially adaptable to state-of-the-art verifiers. Our results show that warmstarting can significantly reduce verification time in most cases. Moreover, warmstarting enables the successful verification of instances that could not be solved from scratch within the given time limit.

Advances in MetaDL: AAAI 2021 challenge and workshop

To stimulate advances in metalearning using deep learning techniques (MetaDL), we organized in 2021 a challenge and an associated workshop. This paper presents the design of the challenge and its results, and summarizes presentations made at the workshop. The challenge focused on few-shot learning classification tasks of small images. Participants' code submissions were run in a uniform manner, under tight computational constraints. This put pressure on solution designs to use existing architecture backbones and/or pre-trained networks. Winning methods featured various classifiers trained on top of the second last layer of popular CNN backbones, fined-tuned on the meta-training data (not necessarily in an episodic manner), then trained on the labeled support and tested on the unlabeled query sets of the meta-test data.
