OmniPatch: A Universal Adversarial Patch for ViT-CNN Cross-Architecture Transfer in Semantic Segmentation

Machine Learning 2026-03-24 v1 Artificial Intelligence Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition

Abstract

Robust semantic segmentation is crucial for safe autonomous driving, yet deployed models remain vulnerable to black-box adversarial attacks when target weights are unknown. Most existing approaches either craft image-wide perturbations or optimize patches for a single architecture, which limits their practicality and transferability. We introduce OmniPatch, a training framework for learning a universal adversarial patch that generalizes across images and both ViT and CNN architectures without requiring access to target model parameters.
