Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use an active binarization test to check whether the evaluation attack finds guaranteed adversarial examples | Adversarial robustness evaluations · 13 previously published defenses | evaluations flagged as insufficient: eleven out of thirteen | Helped |
| Freeze batch-normalization statistics during evaluation and increase PGD steps from 20 to 75 | Defense with batch-normalization evaluation bug · CIFAR-10 test set | binarization test score: 0.04 -> 1.0 | Helped |
| Freeze batch-normalization statistics during evaluation and increase PGD steps from 20 to 75 | Defense with batch-normalization evaluation bug · CIFAR-10 test set | robust accuracy: 60.15\,\% -> \leq 1\,\% | Hurt |
| Make the attack adaptive to the detector using feature matching | Detector-based defense · CIFAR-10 test set | binarization test score: 0.26 and 0.63 -> 0.99 | Helped |
| Make the attack adaptive to the detector using feature matching | Detector-based defense · CIFAR-10 test set | robust accuracy: 99\,\% -> below 12\,\% | Hurt |
| Use FAB instead of AutoPGD | Defense evaluated with PGD, AutoPGD, and FAB · CIFAR-10 test set | robust accuracy: 8.16\,\% -> 0.71\,\% | Hurt |
| Use FAB instead of original PGD | Defense evaluated with PGD, AutoPGD, and FAB · CIFAR-10 test set | robust accuracy: 32.32\,\% -> 0.71\,\% | Hurt |
| Use the ground-truth label rather than the classifier's predicted label as the attack target | Defense evaluation with an attack targeting predicted labels · CIFAR-10 test set | robust accuracy | Hurt |
