Recent works onadversarial reprogramming have shown that it is possible to repurpose neuralnetworks for alternate tasks without modifying the network architecture or parameters . In this work, we broaden the scope of adversarialreprogramming beyond the data modality of the original task . We analyze thefeasibility of adversarially repurposing image classification neural networks for Natural Language Processing (NLP) and other sequence classification tasks . We demonstrate that by using highly efficient adversarialprograms, we can reprogram image classifiers to achieve competitive performance on a variety of text and sequence classification benchmarks without retraining the network . We use an efficient program that maps a sequence of discretetokens
