Title: Improving the Transferability of Adversarial Attacks through Experienced Precise Nesterov Momentum. Abstract: Deep Neural Networks are vulnerable to adversarial attacks, which makes adversarial attacks serve as a method to evaluate the robustness of DNNs. However, adversarial attacks have high white-box attack success rates but poor transferability, making black-box attacks impracticable in the real world. Momentum-based attacks were proposed to accelerate optimization to improve transferability. Nevertheless, conventional momentum-based attacks accelerate optimization inefficiently during early iterations since the initial value of momentum is zero, which leads to unsatisfactory transferability. Therefore, we propose Experienced Momentum (EM), which is the pre-trained momentum. Initializing the momentum to EM can help accelerate optimization during the early iterations. Moreover, the pre-update of conventional Nesterov momentum based attacks is rough, prompting us to propose Precise Nesterov momentum (PN). PN refines the pre-update by considering the gradient of the current data point. Finally, we integrate EM with PN as Experienced Precise Nesterov momentum (EPN) to further improve transferability. Extensive experiments against normally trained and defense models demonstrate that our EPN is more effective than conventional momentum in the improvement of transferability. Specifically, the attack success rates of our EPN-based attacks are $\sim$11.9% and $\sim$13.1% higher than conventional momentum-based attacks on average against normally trained and defense models, respectively.
