Getting Started:

Requirements

To install requirements:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Then download the TinyImageNet Dataset. (Additionally available on our drive). In learning_module.py, change the line

TINYIMAGENET_ROOT = "/fs/cml-datasets/tiny_imagenet"

accordingly, to point to the unzipped TinyImageNet directory. (It is left in this repo to match our filesystem, and will likely not work with yours.)

Pre-trained Models

Pre-trained checkpoints used in this benchmark can be downloaded from here. They should be copied into the pretrained_models folder (which is empty until downloaded models are added).


Testing

To test a model, run:

python test_model.py --model <model> --model_path <path_to_model_file> 

See the code for additional optional arguments.

Crafting Poisons With Our Setups

See How To for full details and sample code.

Evaluating A Single Batch of Poison Examples

We have left one sample folder of poisons in poison_examples.

python poison_test.py --model <model> --model_path <model_path> --poisons_path <path_to_poisons_dir>

This allows users to test their poisons in a variety of settings, not only the benchmark setups. See the file poison_test.py for a comprehensive list of arguments.

Benchmarking A Backdoor or Triggerless Attack

To compute benchmark scores, craft 100 batches of poisons using the setup pickles (for transfer learning: poison_setups_transfer_learning.pickle, for from-scratch training: poison_setups_from_scratch.pickle), and run the following.

Important Note: In order to be on the leaderboard, new submissions must host their poisoned datasets online for public access, so results can be corroborated without producing new poisons. Consider a Dropbox or GoogleDrive folder with all 100 batches of poisons.

For one trial of transfer learning poisons:

python benchmark_test.py --poisons_path <path_to_poison_directory>  --dataset <dataset>

For one trial of from-scratch training poisons:

python benchmark_test.py --poisons_path <path_to_poison_directory> --dataset <dataset> --from_scratch

To benchmark 100 batches of poisons, run

bash benchmark_all.sh <path_to_directory_with_100_batches> 

or

bash benchmark_all.sh <path_to_directory_with_100_batches> from_scratch
