ABSTRACT = {Image-denoising techniques are widely used to defend against Adversarial Examples (AEs). However, denoising alone cannot completely eliminate adversarial perturbations. The remaining perturbations tend to amplify as they propagate through deeper layers of the network, leading to misclassifications. Moreover, image denoising compromises the classification accuracy of original examples. To address these challenges in AE defense through image denoising, this paper proposes a novel AE detection technique. The proposed technique combines multiple traditional image-denoising algorithms and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) network structures. The used detector model integrates the classification results of different models as the input to the detector and calculates the final output of the detector based on a machine-learning voting algorithm. By analyzing the discrepancy between predictions made by the model on original examples and denoised examples, AEs are detected effectively. This technique reduces computational overhead without modifying the model structure or parameters, effectively avoiding the error amplification caused by denoising. The proposed approach demonstrates excellent detection performance against mainstream AE attacks. Experimental results show outstanding detection performance in well-known AE attacks, including Fast Gradient Sign Method (FGSM), Basic Iteration Method (BIM), DeepFool, and Carlini & Wagner (C&W), achieving a 94% success rate in FGSM detection, while only reducing the accuracy of clean examples by 4%.},
