Abstract
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have been widely used in computer vision tasks like image classification, object detection and segmentation. Whereas recent studies have shown their vulnerability to manual digital perturbations or distortion in the input images. The accuracy of the networks is remarkably influenced by the data distribution of their training dataset. Scaling the raw images creates out-of-distribution data, which makes it a possible adversarial attack to fool the networks. In this work, we propose a Scaling-distortion dataset ImageNet-CS by Scaling a subset of the ImageNet Challenge dataset by different multiples. The aim of our work is to study the impact of scaled images on the performance of advanced DNNs. We perform experiments on several state-of-the-art deep neural network architectures on the proposed ImageNet-CS, and the results show a significant positive correlation between scaling size and accuracy decline. Moreover, based on ResNet50 architecture, we demonstrate some tests on the performance of recent proposed robust training techniques and strategies like Augmix, Revisiting and Normalizer Free on our proposed ImageNet-CS. Experiment results have shown that these robust training techniques can improve networks' robustness to scaling transformation.
