Deep neural networks (DNNs) are vulnerable to adversarial noises, which motivates the benchmark of model robustness. Existing benchmarks mainly focus on evaluating the defenses, but there are no comprehensive studies on how architecture design and general training techniques affect robustness. Comprehensively benchmarking their relationships will be highly beneficial for better understanding and developing robust DNNs. Therefore, we propose RobustART, the first comprehensive Robustness investigation benchmark on ImageNet (including open-source toolkit, pre-trained model zoo, datasets, and analyses) regarding ARchitecture design (44 human-designed off-the-shelf architectures and 1200+ networks from neural architecture search) and Training techniques (10+ general techniques, e.g., data augmentation) towards diverse noises (adversarial, natural, and system noises). Extensive experiments revealed and substantiated several insights for the first time, for example: (1) adversarial training largely improves the clean accuracy and all types of robustness for Transformers and MLP-Mixers; (2) with comparable sizes, CNNs > Transformers > MLP-Mixers on robustness against natural and system noises; Transformers > MLP-Mixers > CNNs on adversarial robustness; for some light-weight architectures (e.g., EfficientNet, MobileNetV2, and Mo- bileNetV3), increasing model sizes or using extra training data reduces robustness. Our benchmark http://robust.art/: (1) presents an open-source platform for conducting comprehensive evaluation on different robustness types; (2) provides a variety of pre-trained models that can be utilized for downstream applications; (3) proposes a new perspective to better understand the mechanism of DNNs towards designing robust architectures, backed up by comprehensive analysis. We will continuously contribute to build this open eco-system for the community.
You use conda to create a virtual environment to run this project.
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/DIG-Beihang/RobustART.git
cd robustART
conda create --name RobustART python=3.6.9
conda activate RobustART
pip install -r requirements.txt
After this, you should installl pytorch and torchvision package which meet your GPU and CUDA version according to https://pytorch.org
If you want to use this project to train or evaluate model(s), you can choose to create a work directory for saving config, checkpoints, scripts etc.
We have put some example for trainging or evlaluate. You can use it as follows
cd exprs/exp/imagenet-a_o-loop
bash run.sh
You can use the AddNoise's add_noise function to add multiple noise for one image or a batch of images The supported noise list is: ['imagenet-s', 'imagenet-c', 'pgd_linf', 'pgd_l2', 'fgsm', 'autoattack_linf', 'mim_linf', 'pgd_l1']
Example of adding ImageNet-C noise for image
from RobustART.noise import AddNoise
NoiseClass = AddNoise(noise_type='imagenet-c')
# set the config of one kind of noise
NoiseClass.set_config(corruption_name='gaussian_noise')
image_addnoise = NoiseClass.add_noise(image='test_input.jpeg')
We provided cls_solver solver to train a model with a specific config
Example of using base config to train a resnet50
cd exprs/robust_baseline_exp/resnet/resnet50
#Change the python path to the root path
PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:../../../../
srun -n8 --gpu "python -u -m RobustART.training.cls_solver --config config.yaml"
We evaluate model(s) of different dataset, we provides several solver to evaluate the model on one or some specific dataset(s)
Example of evaluation on ImageNet-A and ImageNet-O dataset
cd exprs/exp/imagenet-a_0-loop
#Change the python path to the root path
PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:../../../
srun -n8 --gpu "python -u -m RobustART.training.cls_solver --config config.yaml"
We provided metrics APIs, so that you can use these APIs to evaluate results for ImageNet-A,O,P,C,S and Adv noise.
from RobustART.metrics import ImageNetAEvaluator
metric = ImageNetAEvaluator()
metric.eval(res_file)
