Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use adversarially robust rather than standard ImageNet pretraining | Fixed-feature transfer · 12 downstream classification tasks | accuracy | Helped |
| Use adversarially robust rather than standard ImageNet pretraining | Full-network transfer · 12 downstream classification tasks | accuracy | Mixed |
| Use adversarially robust ImageNet backbone initialization | Detection and instance segmentation · PASCAL VOC and COCO | AP | Helped |
| Increase robustness parameter ε from 0.0 to nonzero values (ablation) | ResNet transfer models · CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100 | transfer accuracy: 96.05 -> 97.04; 81.70 -> 83.98 | Helped |
| Increase ImageNet accuracy while holding robustness fixed (ablation) | Robust and standard pretrained models · CIFAR-10 | transfer accuracy: R^2 0.79; R^2 0.97 | Helped |
| Increase model width (ablation) | Robust pretrained models · Downstream classification tasks | transfer accuracy | Helped |
| Increase model width (ablation) | Standard pretrained models · Downstream classification tasks | transfer accuracy | No clear effect |
| Use task-selected robustness ε rather than one fixed ε for all tasks (ablation) | Robust pretrained models · CIFAR-10 versus CIFAR-100 transfer | accuracy: 3.0; 1.0 | Mixed |
| Downscale datasets to 32×32 before resizing to ImageNet scale (ablation) | Fixed-feature transfer · 12 classification datasets | transfer accuracy | No clear effect |
| Use adversarially robust rather than texture-invariant Stylized ImageNet pretraining | Transfer to standard datasets · Considered standard transfer tasks | accuracy | Helped |
| Use adversarially robust rather than standard ImageNet pretraining | Transfer evaluation or fine-tuning · Stylized ImageNet | accuracy | Helped |
