Adversarial Training

class art.defences.trainer.AdversarialTrainer(classifier: CLASSIFIER_LOSS_GRADIENTS_TYPE, attacks: Union[EvasionAttack, List[EvasionAttack]], ratio: float = 0.5)

Class performing adversarial training based on a model architecture and one or multiple attack methods.

Incorporates original adversarial training, ensemble adversarial training (https://arxiv.org/abs/1705.07204), training on all adversarial data and other common setups. If multiple attacks are specified, they are rotated for each batch. If the specified attacks have as target a different model, then the attack is transferred. The ratio determines how many of the clean samples in each batch are replaced with their adversarial counterpart.

Warning

Both successful and unsuccessful adversarial samples are used for training. In the case of unbounded attacks (e.g., DeepFool), this can result in invalid (very noisy) samples being included.

Please keep in mind the limitations of defences. While adversarial training is widely regarded as a promising, principled approach to making classifiers more robust (see https://arxiv.org/abs/1802.00420), very careful evaluations are required to assess its effectiveness case by case (see https://arxiv.org/abs/1902.06705).

Parameters
