Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use the candidate attack generated by the online learning bound rather than label flipping | Oracle sphere and slab defense on MNIST-1-7 and Dogfish · MNIST-1-7 and Dogfish | test loss | Helped |
| Replace the candidate attack with gradient descent on test loss | Oracle sphere and slab defense · MNIST-1-7 and Dogfish | test loss | Hurt |
| Replace the candidate attack with label flipping | Oracle sphere and slab defense · MNIST-1-7 and Dogfish | test loss | Hurt |
| Add 30% poisoned data under the oracle sphere and slab defense | Binary SVM on MNIST-1-7 · MNIST-1-7 | test error: at most 4% | No clear effect |
| Add 30% poisoned data under the oracle sphere and slab defense | Binary SVM on Dogfish · Dogfish | test error: at most 4% | No clear effect |
| Add 3% poisoned data under the oracle sphere and slab defense | Binary SVM on IMDB · IMDB | test error: 12% to 23% | Hurt |
| Use empirical poisoned class centroids instead of true class centroids (ablation) | Sphere and slab defense on MNIST-1-7 · MNIST-1-7 | test 0-1 loss: 0.01 to 0.40 | Hurt |
| Use empirical poisoned class centroids instead of true class centroids (ablation) | Sphere and slab defense on Dogfish · Dogfish | test 0-1 loss: 0.01 to 0.22 | Hurt |
| Increase poisoning to 30% rather than keeping it at 5% or less (ablation) | Data-dependent sphere and slab defense on MNIST-1-7 and Dogfish · MNIST-1-7 and Dogfish | train loss | Hurt |
| Use the data-dependent defense instead of the oracle defense (ablation) | Sphere and slab defense on MNIST-1-7 · MNIST-1-7 | test 0-1 loss: 0.01 to 0.40 | Hurt |
