this mug is a dog - YOLOv2

This mug looks like a mug to a human, but through the magic (math) of adversarial machine learning will appear to be a dog to any image classification system.

Adversarial patches don't always transfer well between models. This patch was specifically designed to be effective against YOLOv2. • Ceramic • 11 oz mug dimensions: 3.85″ (9.8 cm) in height, 3.35″ (8.5 cm) in diameter • 15 oz mug dimensions: 4.7″ (12 cm) in height, 3.35″ (8.5 cm) in diameter • Dishwasher and microwave safe This adversarial designs mug uses a targeted adversarial patch that maximizes the class probability for dog in the bounding box for the mug. The patch is trained with dynamic spline warping to account for the curvature of the mug's surface.
