Random Parameter Pruning Boosts Transferable Targeted Attacks Across Model Architectures

The RaPA method introduces random parameter pruning during adversarial generation, creating diverse model variants that markedly increase the success rate of targeted transfer attacks across CNN and Transformer architectures, even against defended models and with higher computational budgets, as demonstrated on ImageNet‑compatible benchmarks.
