Feature Scattering Adversarial Training (NeurIPS 2019)

Introduction

This is the implementation of the "Feature-Scattering Adversarial Training", which is a training method for improving model robustness against adversarial attacks. It advocates the usage of an unsupervised feature-scattering procedure for adversarial perturbation generation, which is effective for overcoming label leaking and improving model robustness.

Usage

Installation

The training environment (PyTorch and dependencies) can be installed as follows:

git clone https://github.com/Haichao-Zhang/FeatureScatter.git
cd FeatureScatter

python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

python3 setup.py install

(or pip install -e .)

Tested under Python 3.5.2 and PyTorch 1.2.0.

Train

Specify the path for saving the trained models in fs_train.sh, and then run

sh ./fs_train.sh

Evaluate

Specify the path to the trained models to be evaluated in fs_eval.sh and then run

sh ./fs_eval.sh

Reference Model

A reference model trained on CIFAR10 is here.
