Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Combine the deformation penalty ∥f∥τ² with the adversarial perturbation penalty ∥f∥δ² instead of using either alone (ablation) | VGG · MNIST 300 and 1k examples | test accuracy: 94.17 / 96.99; 94.42 / 97.13 -> 95.23 / 97.66 | Helped |
| Add spectral norm projection to ∥f∥τ² + ∥f∥δ² (ablation) | VGG · MNIST 300 and 1k examples | test accuracy: 95.23 / 97.66 -> 95.20 / 97.60 | Mixed |
| Include deformed digits as training examples alongside ∥f∥τ² + ∥f∥δ² (ablation) | VGG · MNIST 300 and 1k examples | test accuracy: 95.23 / 97.66 -> 95.53 / 97.56 | Mixed |
| Add a lower-bound gradient penalty to SN projection (ablation) | VGG-11 · CIFAR10 1k, without augmentation | test accuracy: 46.70 -> 46.88 | Helped |
| Add a lower-bound gradient penalty to SN projection (ablation) | ResNet-18 · CIFAR10 1k, with augmentation | test accuracy: 47.12 -> 48.73 | Helped |
| Use ∥∇f∥² instead of the gradient penalty on the loss (ablation) | CIFAR10 classifiers · CIFAR10 1k, without augmentation | test accuracy: VGG-11: 43.88 -> 46.37; ResNet-18: 41.87 -> 44.97 | Helped |
| Combine ∥f∥δ² with spectral norm projection (ablation) | 3-layer CNN · Protein homology, no data augmentation | auROC50: 0.577 -> 0.631 | Helped |
| Combine ∥f∥δ² with spectral norm projection (ablation) | 3-layer CNN · Protein homology, data augmentation | auROC50: 0.611 -> 0.639 | Helped |
| Use spectral norm upper-bound regularization alone for adversarial robustness | VGG classifier · CIFAR10 under ℓ2-bounded adversaries | robust accuracy | Hurt |
| Combine SN constraints with a lower-bound strategy such as PGD-ℓ2 | VGG classifier · CIFAR10 under ℓ2-bounded adversaries | robustness | Helped |
| Use the adversarial perturbation penalty rather than the gradient penalty | 3-layer CNN · Protein homology detection | auROC50: 0.577 vs 0.566; 0.611 vs 0.598 | Mixed |
