Random Perturbations

From one of the first papers on Adversarial examples - Explaining and Harnessing Adversarial Examples,

The direction of perturbation, rather than the specific point in space, matters most. Space is not full of pockets of adversarial examples that finely tile the reals like the rational numbers.

This project examines this idea by testing the robustness of a DNN to randomly generated perturbations.

Usage

$ python3 explore_space.py --img images/horse.png

Demo

This code adds to the input image (img) a randomly generated perturbation (vec1) which is subjected to a max norm constraint eps. This adversarial image lies on a hypercube centerd around the original image. To explore a region (a hypersphere) around the adversarial image (img + vec1), we add to it another perturbation (vec2) which is constrained by L₂ norm rad.
Pressing keys e and r generates new vec1 and vec2 respectively.

Random Perturbations

The classifier is robust to these random perturbations even though they have severely degraded the image. Perturbations are clearly noticeable and have significantly higher max norm.

In above images, there is no change in class labels and very small drops in probability.

FGSM Perturbations

A properly directed perturbation with max norm as low as 3, which is almost imperceptible, can fool the classifier.

Fast Gradient Sign Method (FGSM)

Paper

Usage

• Run the script

$ python3 fgsm_mnist.py --img one.jpg --gpu

$ python3 fgsm_imagenet.py --img goldfish.jpg --model resnet18 --gpu

fgsm_mnsit.py - for attack on custom model trained on MNIST whose weights are 9920.pth.tar.
fgsm_imagenet - for pretrained imagenet models - resnet18, resnet50 etc.

• Control keys
  • use trackbar to change epsilon (max norm)
  • esc - close
  • s - save perturbation and adversarial image

Demo

Basic Iterative Method (Targeted and Untargeted)

Paper: Adversarial examples in the physical world

Usage

• Run the script

$ python3 iterative.py --img images/goldfish.jpg --model resnet18 --target 4
# If argument 'target' is not specified, it is untargeted attack

• Control keys
  • use trackbar to change epsilon (max norm of perturbation) and iter (number of iterations)
  • esc close and space to pause
  • s save perturbation and adversarial image

Demo

One Pixel Attack for Fooling Deep Neural Networks

Paper

Existence of single pixel adversarial perturbations suggest that the assumption made in Explaining and Harnessing Adversarial Examples that small additive perturbation on the values of many dimensions will accumulate and cause huge change to the output, might not be necessary for explaining why natural images are sensitive to small perturbations.

Usage

$ python3 one_pixel.py --img airplane.jpg --d 3 --iters 600 --popsize 10

d is number of pixels to change (L₀ norm)
iters and popsize are paprameters for Differential Evolution

Results

Attacks are typically successful for images with low confidence. For successful attacks on high confidence images increase d, i.e., number of pixels to perturb.

AdvGAN - Generating Adversarial Examples with Adversarial Networks

Paper | IJCAI 2018

Usage

Inference

$ python3 advgan.py --img images/0.jpg --target 4 --model Model_C --bound 0.3

Each of these settings has a separate Generator trained. This code loads appropriate trained model from saved/ directory based on given arguments. As of now there are 22 Generators for different targets, different bounds (0.2 and 0.3) and target models (only Model_C for now).

Training AdvGAN (Untargeted)

$ python3 train_advgan.py --model Model_C --gpu

Training AdvGAN (Targeted)

$ python3 train_advgan.py --model Model_C --target 4 --thres 0.3 --gpu
# thres: Perturbation bound 

Use --help for other arguments available (epochs, batch_size, lr etc.)

Training Target Models (Models A, B and C)

$ python3 train_target_models.py --model Model_C

For TensorBoard visualization,

$ python3 generators.py
$ python3 discriminators.py

This code supports only MNIST dataset for now. Same notations as in paper are followed (mostly).

Results

There are few changes that have been made for model to work.

• Generator in paper has ReLU on the last layer. If input data is normalized to [-1 1] there wouldn't be any perturbation in the negative region. As expected accuracies were poor (~10% Untargeted). So ReLU was removed. Also, data normalization had significat effect on performance. With [-1 1] accuracies were around 70%. But with [0 1] normalization accuracies were ~99%.
• Perturbations (pert) and adversarial images (x + pert) were clipped. It's not converging otherwise.

These results are for the following settings.

• Dataset - MNIST
• Data normalization - [0 1]
• thres (perturbation bound) - 0.3 and 0.2
• No ReLU at the end in Generator
• Epochs - 15
• Batch Size - 128
• LR Scheduler - step_size 5, gamma 0.1 and initial lr - 0.001
