contents Adversarial data can lead to malfunction of deep learning applications. It is essential to develop deep learning models that are robust to adversarial data while accurate on standard, clean data. In this study, we proposed a novel adversarially robust feature learning (ARFL) method for a real-world application of breast cancer diagnosis. ARFL facilitates adversarial training using both standard data and adversarial data, where a feature correlation measure is incorporated as an objective function to encourage learning of robust features and restrain spurious features. To show the effects of ARFL in breast cancer diagnosis, we built and evaluated diagnosis models using two independent clinically collected breast imaging datasets, comprising a total of 9,548 mammogram images. We performed extensive experiments showing that our method outperformed several state-of-the-art methods and that our method can enhance safer breast cancer diagnosis against adversarial attacks in clinical settings.
