Welcome to Part 3 of our blog series on Adversarial Machine Learning! In this installment, we will delve into the intricacies of the Projected Gradient Descent (PGD) method—a powerful iterative technique for crafting adversarial examples. We will explore how PGD enhances the Fast Gradient Sign Method (FGSM) by iterating and refining the perturbations, leading to more robust and effective attacks. I will also provide a step-by-step code implementation of PGD using PyTorch and compare the attack success rates of FGSM and PGD.

Introduction

In this blog post, we will discuss how to fine-tune a pre-trained deep learning model using PyTorch. Fine-tuning is a powerful technique that allows us to leverage the knowledge learned by a pre-trained model on a large dataset and apply it to a new task. This can save a significant amount of time and resources compared to training a model from scratch. The fine-tuned model achieved 92.34% accuracy on the test set.

Autonomous vehicles that are capable of navigating without human inputs are heavily dependent on computer vision tasks such as object detection. Many object detection algorithms such as YOLO, Faster R-CNN, SSD, have been proposed to detect and recognize the traffic signs.

In this blog, Faster R-CNN will be used for the detection of German traffic signs (GTSDB dataset) with reference to Torchvision’s object detection finetuning tutorial.
