Adversarial rotations and translations for CIFAR10

This repository contains code to train and evaluate CIFAR10 models against adversarially chosen rotations and translations. It can be used to reproduce the main experiments of:

A Rotation and a Translation Suffice: Fooling CNNs with Simple Transformations

The main scipts to run are train.py and eval.py, which will train and evaluate a model respectively. Options are all included in config.json annotated below.

      "grid_granularity": [5, 5, 31] # controls how many points are in the grid
  },

  "data": { "data_path": "/scratch/datasets/cifar10" }
}

Data augmentation only included random left-right flips. Standard CIFAR10 augmentation (+-2 pixel crops) can be achieved by setting adversarial_training: true, spatial_method: random, random_tries: 1, spatial_limits: [2, 2, 0].
