1.MIM攻击的原理
MIM攻击全称是 Momentum Iterative Method，其实这也是一种类似于PGD的基于梯度的迭代攻击算法。它的本质就是，在进行迭代的时候，每一轮的扰动不仅与当前的梯度方向有关，还与之前算出来的梯度方向相关。其中的衰减因子就是用来调节相关度的，decay_factor在（0，1）之间，decay_factor越小，那么迭代轮数靠前算出来的梯度对当前的梯度方向影响越小。其实仔细想想，这样做也很有道理，由于之前的梯度对后面的迭代也有影响，那么这使得，迭代的方向不会跑偏，使得总体的大方向是对的。到目前为止都是笔者对MIM比较感性的认识，下面贴出论文中比较学术的观点。
其实为了加速梯度下降，通过累积损失函数的梯度方向上的矢量，从而（1）稳定更新（2）有助于通过 narrow valleys, small humps and poor local minima or maxima.(专业名词不知道怎么翻译，可以脑补函数图像，大致意思就是，可以有效避免局部最优）
是decay_factor,另外，在原论文中，每一次迭代对x的导数是直接算的1-范数，然后求平均，但在各个算法库以及论文实现的补充中，并没有求平均，估计这个对结果影响不太大。
2.代码实现（直接把advertorch里的代码贴过来了）

x, y = self._verify_and_process_inputs(x, y) delta = torch.zeros_like(x)

loss.backward() g = self.decay_factor * g + normalize_by_pnorm(
delta.grad.data, p=1)
# according to the paper it should be .sum(), but in their

# it is .mean(), but actually it shouldn't matter delta.data += self.eps_iter * torch.sign(g)

return rval
个人觉得，advertorch中在迭代过程中，应该是对imgadv求导，而不是对delta求导，笔者查看了foolbox和cleverhans的实现，都是对每一轮的对抗样本求导，大家自己实现的时候可以改一下。
