| contents | Deep learning models are susceptible to adversarial attacks, where slight perturbations to input data lead to misclassification. Adversarial attacks become increasingly effective with access to information about the targeted classifier. In the context of multi-task learning, where a single model learns multiple tasks simultaneously, attackers may aim to exploit vulnerabilities in specific tasks with limited information. This paper investigates the feasibility of attacking hidden tasks within multi-task classifiers, where model access regarding the hidden target task and labeled data for the hidden target task are not available, but model access regarding the non-target tasks is available. We propose a novel adversarial attack method that leverages knowledge from non-target tasks and the shared backbone network of the multi-task model to force the model to forget knowledge related to the target task. Experimental results on CelebA and DeepFashion datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our method in degrading the accuracy of hidden tasks while preserving the performance of visible tasks, contributing to the understanding of adversarial vulnerabilities in multi-task classifiers. |
