Foolbox Native: Fast adversarial attacks to benchmark the robustness of machine learning models in PyTorch, TensorFlow, and JAX

Foolbox is a Python library that lets you easily run adversarial attacks against machine learning models like deep neural networks. It is built on top of EagerPy and works natively with models in PyTorch, TensorFlow, and JAX.

🔥 Design

Foolbox 3 a.k.a. Foolbox Native has been rewritten from scratch using EagerPy instead of NumPy to achieve native performance on models developed in PyTorch, TensorFlow and JAX, all with one code base without code duplication.

• Native Performance: Foolbox 3 is built on top of EagerPy and runs natively in PyTorch, TensorFlow, and JAX and comes with real batch support.

• State-of-the-art attacks: Foolbox provides a large collection of state-of-the-art gradient-based and decision-based adversarial attacks.

• Type Checking: Catch bugs before running your code thanks to extensive type annotations in Foolbox.

📖 Documentation

• Guide: The best place to get started with Foolbox is the official guide.

• Tutorial: If you are looking for a tutorial, check out this Jupyter notebook .

• Documentation: The API documentation can be found on ReadTheDocs.

🚀 Quickstart

pip install foolbox

Foolbox requires Python 3.6 or newer. To use it with PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX, the respective framework needs to be installed separately. These frameworks are not declared as dependencies because not everyone wants to use and thus install all of them and because some of these packages have different builds for different architectures and CUDA versions. Besides that, all essential dependencies are automatically installed.

You can see the versions we currently use for testing in the Compatibility section below, but newer versions are in general expected to work.

🎉 Example

import foolbox as fb

model = ...
fmodel = fb.PyTorchModel(model, bounds=(0, 1))

attack = fb.attacks.LinfPGD()
epsilons = [0.0, 0.001, 0.01, 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 1.0]
_, advs, success = attack(fmodel, images, labels, epsilons=epsilons)

More examples can be found in the examples folder, e.g. a full ResNet-18 example.
