Abstract
We study the problem of learning an adversarially robust predictor to test
time attacks in the semi-supervised PAC model. We address the question of how
many labeled and unlabeled examples are required to ensure learning. We show
that having enough unlabeled data (the size of a labeled sample that a
fully-supervised method would require), the labeled sample complexity can be
arbitrarily smaller compared to previous works, and is sharply characterized by
a different complexity measure. We prove nearly matching upper and lower bounds
on this sample complexity. This shows that there is a significant benefit in
semi-supervised robust learning even in the worst-case distribution-free model,
and establishes a gap between the supervised and semi-supervised label
complexities which is known not to hold in standard non-robust PAC learning.
