Adversarial samples are similar to the clean ones, but are able to cheat the attacked DNN to produce incorrect predictions in high confidence. But most of the existing adversarial attacks have high success rate only when the information of the attacked DNN is well-known or could be estimated by massive queries. A promising way is to generate adversarial samples with high transferability. By this way, we generate 96020 transferable adversarial samples from original ones in ImageNet. The average difference, measured by root means squared deviation, is only around 3.8 on average. However, the adversarial samples are misclassified by various models with an error rate up to 90\\%. Since the images are generated independently with the attacked DNNs, this is essentially zero-query adversarial attack. We call the dataset \\emph{DAmageNet}, which is the first universal adversarial dataset that beats many models trained in ImageNet. By finding the drawbacks, DAmageNet could serve as a benchmark to study and improve robustness of DNNs.

Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage. ## Original sources and implementation [Original paper]() [PDF]()
