Geometry Is Not Robustness: A Trajectory-Level Study of PGD Evaluation

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

arXiv:2608. 14594v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Projected Gradient Descent (PGD) is widely used to evaluate adversarial robustness, typically via final adversarial accuracy, which does not capture model behaviour throughout the attack.
