Query: Differentiable Language Model Adversarial Attacks on Categorical
  Sequence Classifiers   An adversarial attack paradigm explores various scenarios for the
vulnerability of deep learning models: minor changes of the input can force a
model failure. Most of the state of the art frameworks focus on adversarial
attacks for images and other structured model inputs, but not for categorical
sequences models.
  Successful attacks on classifiers of categorical sequences are challenging
because the model input is tokens from finite sets, so a classifier score is
non-differentiable with respect to inputs, and gradient-based attacks are not
applicable. Common approaches deal with this problem working at a token level,
while the discrete optimization problem at hand requires a lot of resources to
solve.
  We instead use a fine-tuning of a language model for adversarial attacks as a
generator of adversarial examples. To optimize the model, we define a
differentiable loss function that depends on a surrogate classifier score and
on a deep learning model that evaluates approximate edit distance. So, we
control both the adversability of a generated sequence and its similarity to
the initial sequence.
  As a result, we obtain semantically better samples. Moreover, they are
resistant to adversarial training and adversarial detectors. Our model works
for diverse datasets on bank transactions, electronic health records, and NLP
datasets.
