| # RobustGenBench | |
| **A standardized benchmark for robust generalization of image classifiers across common and adversarial ($\\ell_1, \\ell_2, \\ell_\\infty$) perturbations.** | |
| 📄 Paper · 💻 [Code](https://github.com/legolasflagstaff/robust_training) · 📜 [Citation](#citation) | |
| RobustGenBench evaluates how well a classifier keeps its accuracy on perturbation types it was not trained against. It provides six downstream classification datasets with fixed splits at 224×224 resolution, together with perturbed copies of every test set: | |
| - **Common corruptions** (11 types, severity 3): model-independent, the same images for every model. | |
| - **Random uniform noise** ($\\ell_\\infty \\le 30/255$): a control for the adversarial perturbations. | |
| - **Transfer adversarial perturbations** ({n_adv:,} images): crafted with AutoAttack on 5 open-weight vision-language surrogates, across 7 budgets in $\\ell_1$, $\\ell_2$, $\\ell_\\infty$. | |
| Because the adversarial images are pre-computed, any model, including API-only systems such as vision-enabled LLMs, can be evaluated **by inference alone**, without GPU access. For white-box evaluation, attack your own model on the clean `test` split. | |
| In total: {n_test:,} clean test images and {n_pert:,} perturbed test images. | |
| ## Quick start | |
| ```python | |
| from datasets import load_dataset | |
| # One config per dataset; one split per perturbation setting. | |
| clean = load_dataset("legolasflagstaff/RobustGenBench", "uc-merced-land-use-dataset", split="test") | |
| adv = load_dataset("legolasflagstaff/RobustGenBench", "uc-merced-land-use-dataset", split="clip_vith14_linf_30") | |
| row = adv[0] | |
| row["image"] # PIL.Image, 224×224 RGB | |
| adv.features["label"].int2str(row["label"]) # class name | |
| row["image_id"] # aligns with the clean image of the same id | |
| ``` | |
| Evaluate a classifier on every perturbation setting of one dataset: | |
| ```python | |
| from datasets import load_dataset, get_dataset_split_names | |
| repo, cfg = "legolasflagstaff/RobustGenBench", "flowers-102" | |
| for split in get_dataset_split_names(repo, cfg): | |
| if split in ("train", "validation"): | |
| continue | |
| ds = load_dataset(repo, cfg, split=split) | |
| acc = sum(predict(x["image"]) == x["label"] for x in ds) / len(ds) # your model here | |
| print(f"{{split:24s}} {{acc:.3f}}") | |
| ``` | |
| Splits are aligned by `image_id`: row *i* of every perturbed split is a perturbed version of row *i* of `test`, with the same label. | |
| ## Datasets | |
| | Config | Dataset | Domain | Granularity | Classes | Train | Validation | Test | | |
| |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | |
| {ds_rows} | |
| Test sets are standardized to at most 1,000 images by uniform sampling, preserving all classes. All images are resized to 224×224×3 and stored as lossless PNG. | |
| ## Splits | |
| Each config (dataset) contains the following splits. | |
| | Split | Content | | |
| |---|---| | |
| | `train`, `validation` | Clean images, for fine-tuning. | | |
| | `test` | Clean test images, the reference for all perturbed splits. | | |
| | `common` | Each test image with one of 11 common corruptions at severity 3 (column `corruption`). | | |
| | `random_linf_30` | Uniform random noise with $\\lVert\\delta\\rVert_\\infty \\le 30/255$. | | |
| | `<surrogate>_<norm>_<eps>` | Transfer adversarial images, e.g. `clip_vitb16_linf_30`, `metaclip_vith14_l1_300`. | | |
| ### Common corruptions | |
| Shot noise, impulse noise, defocus blur, motion blur, zoom blur, snow, brightness, contrast, elastic transform, pixelate, JPEG compression, all at severity 3 of the ImageNet-C scale. Test image *i* receives corruption *i* mod 11; the assignment is deterministic, so every model is evaluated on identical (image, corruption) pairs. | |
| ### Adversarial perturbations | |
| Perturbations are crafted with the standard AutoAttack ensemble (APGD-CE, APGD-T, FAB-T, Square) against zero-shot surrogate classifiers. Each surrogate predicts the class whose text embedding (`"a photo of a {{class}}"`) is closest to the image embedding. AutoAttack only perturbs images the surrogate classifies correctly; other images are copied unchanged (`is_modified = false`). | |
| | Norm | Budgets $\\epsilon$ | Split suffix | | |
| |---|---|---| | |
| | $\\ell_1$ | 75, 300 | `l1_75`, `l1_300` | | |
| | $\\ell_2$ | 2, 8 | `l2_2`, `l2_8` | | |
| | $\\ell_\\infty$ | 4/255, 8/255, 30/255 | `linf_4`, `linf_8`, `linf_30` | | |
| Budgets are expressed on pixel values in $[0, 1]$; the `epsilon` column stores the exact value (e.g. 0.1176 for 30/255). | |
| | Surrogate prefix | Model | Checkpoint | | |
| |---|---|---| | |
| {surr_rows} | |
| ### Coverage | |
| SigLIP-family surrogates classify the fine-grained datasets poorly, and a surrogate that misclassifies the clean image provides no attack signal. SigLIP2 SO400M is therefore provided on the three coarse-grained datasets only. SigLIP2 base is provided at $\\ell_\\infty$ 30/255 only; on the fine-grained datasets it leaves most images unmodified (see `is_modified`). | |

| ## Data fields | |
| | Field | Type | Description | | |
| |---|---|---| | |
| | `image` | image | 224×224 RGB PNG. | | |
| | `label` | class label | Ground-truth class (use `features["label"].names` for names). | | |
| | `image_id` | int32 | Index of the source image within its split; aligns perturbed splits with `test`. | | |
| | `perturbation` | string | `clean`, `common_corruption_severity3`, `random_uniform`, or `transfer_autoattack`. | | |
| | `surrogate` | string | Surrogate used to craft the attack (null otherwise). | | |
| | `norm` | string | `l1`, `l2`, or `linf` (null for clean and common). | | |
| | `epsilon` | float32 | Perturbation budget (null for clean and common). | | |
| | `corruption` | string | Common corruption applied (`common` split only). | | |
| | `is_modified` | bool | Whether the image differs from its clean counterpart. | | |
| ## Evaluation protocol | |
| RobustGenBench reports accuracy per (dataset, perturbation setting), aggregated with: | |
| - **Sum score**: sum of accuracies over all (dataset, setting) pairs. Pool-independent; use it to compare new models with published results. | |
| - **Borda score**: rank-based consistency across pairs, only meaningful within a fixed pool of models. | |
| The paper uses two sets of settings: | |
| - **Fine-tuned vision models (5 settings):** `test`, `common`, and white-box AutoAttack on the evaluated model at $\\ell_1 = 75$, $\\ell_2 = 2$, $\\ell_\\infty = 4/255$, crafted from the clean `test` split. Maximum sum score: 30. | |
| - **Black-box models, e.g. vision-enabled LLMs (9 settings):** `test`, `common`, and the 7 transfer budgets, taking the strongest surrogate per dataset and setting. | |
| ## Intended use and limitations | |
| **Intended use:** held-out evaluation of the robustness of image classifiers, fine-tuned or zero-shot, including API-only models. Do not train on the test or perturbed splits. | |
| **Limitations** | |
| - Transfer attacks give an upper bound on robust accuracy. They are not a substitute for white-box or adaptive attacks when model access is available. | |
| - All surrogates are attention-based, so transfer to convolutional targets is weaker. | |
| - Budgets are not matched across norms; compare norms only at the intensities provided. | |
| - Common corruptions are evaluated at a single severity. | |
| - Coverage is limited to six source taxonomies; results do not imply robustness on open-world imagery. | |
| **Biases.** The source datasets inherit the biases of their collection, for example Western car models (Stanford Cars) and breeds common in the UK (Oxford-IIIT Pet). Some images may incidentally show people or license plates; no additional anonymization was performed. | |
