Abstract

Deep learning recently becomes popular because it brings significant improvements on a wide variety of classification and recognition tasks. However, with the population and increasing usage of deep learning based models, not many people take into account the potential security risks which are likely to cause accidents in them. This paper mainly studies on the potential safety hazards in the obstacle recognition and processing system (ORPS) of the self-driving cars, which is constructed by deep learning architecture. We perform an attack that embeds a backdoor in the Mask R-CNN in ORPS by poisoning the dataset. The experiment result shows that it is possible to embed a backdoor in ORPS. We can see that the backdoored network can accurately recognize and trigger the backdoors in the poisoned dataset, which obviously change the size of bounding box and corresponding mask of those poisoned instances. But on the other hand, embedding a backdoor in the deep learning based model will only slightly affect the accuracy of detecting objects without backdoor triggers, which is imperceptible for users. Furthermore, in order to study the working mode of the backdoor and the possibility of detecting the backdoor in the network, we visualize the weights matrices in the backdoored network and try to modify them, but the results show that the existence of the backdoor in network is very cryptic, so it is difficult for users to detect and filter it. Eventually, we hope that our simple work can arouse people’s attention to the self-driving technology and even other deep learning based models.
