Documentation

torchattack's docs are available at docs.swo.moe/torchattack.

Usage

import torch

device = torch.device('cuda' if torch.cuda.is_available() else 'cpu')

Load a pretrained model to attack from either torchvision or timm.

from torchattack import AttackModel

# Load a model with `AttackModel`
model = AttackModel.from_pretrained(model_name='resnet50').to(device)
# `AttackModel` automatically attach the model's `transform` and `normalize` functions
transform, normalize = model.transform, model.normalize

# Additionally, to explicitly specify where to load the pretrained model from (timm or torchvision),
# prepend the model name with 'timm/' or 'tv/' respectively, or use the `from_timm` argument, e.g.
vit_b16 = AttackModel.from_pretrained(model_name='timm/vit_base_patch16_224').to(device)
inv_v3 = AttackModel.from_pretrained(model_name='tv/inception_v3').to(device)
pit_b = AttackModel.from_pretrained(model_name='pit_b_224', from_timm=True).to(device)

Initialize an attack by importing its attack class.

from torchattack import FGSM, MIFGSM

# Initialize an attack
attack = FGSM(model, normalize, device)

# Initialize an attack with extra params
attack = MIFGSM(model, normalize, device, eps=0.03, steps=10, decay=1.0)

Initialize an attack by its name with create_attack().

from torchattack import create_attack

# Initialize FGSM attack with create_attack
attack = create_attack('FGSM', model, normalize, device)

# Initialize PGD attack with specific eps with create_attack
attack = create_attack('PGD', model, normalize, device, eps=0.03)

# Initialize MI-FGSM attack with extra args with create_attack
attack_args = {'steps': 10, 'decay': 1.0}
attack = create_attack('MIFGSM', model, normalize, device, eps=0.03, **attack_args)
