Research Artifact of ICSE 2023 Paper: Revisiting Neuron Coverage for DNN Testing: A Layer-Wise and Distribution-Aware Criterion

Preprint: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2112.01955.pdf

Implementations

This repo implements the NLC proposed in our paper and previous neuron coverage criteria (optimized if possible), including

  • Neuron Coverage (NC) [1]
  • K-Multisection Neuron Coverage (KMNC) [2]
  • Neuron Boundary Coverage (NBC) [2]
  • Strong Neuron Activation Coverage (SNAC) [2]
  • Top-K Neuron Coverage (TKNC) [2]
  • Top-K Neuron Patterns (TKNP) [2]
  • Cluster-based Coverage (CC) [3]
  • Likelihood Surprise Coverage (LSC) [4]
  • Distance-ratio Surprise Coverage (DSC) [5]
  • Mahalanobis Distance Surprise Coverage (MDSC) [5]

Each criterion is implemented as one Python class in coverage.py.

Installation

  • Build from source code

    git clone https://github.com/Yuanyuan-Yuan/NeuraL-Coverage
    cd NeuraL-Coverage
    pip install -r requirements.txt
    

Model & Dataset

  • Pretrained models: please see MODEL.
  • Datasets: please see DATASET.

Getting Started

import torch
# Implemented using Pytorch

import tool
import coverage

# 0. Get layer size in model
input_size = (1, image_channel, image_size, image_size)
random_input = torch.randn(input_size).to(device)
layer_size_dict = tool.get_layer_output_sizes(model, random_input)

# 1. Initialization
# `hyper` denotes the hyper-paramter of a criterion;
# set `hyper` as None if a criterion is hyper-paramter free (e.g., NLC).
criterion = coverage.NLC(model, layer_size_dict, hyper=None)
# KMNC/NBC/SNAC/LSC/DSC/MDSC requires training data statistics of the tested model,
# which is implemented in `build`. `train_loader` can be a DataLoader object in Pytorch or a list of data samples.
# For other criteria, `build` function is empty.
criterion.build(train_loader)

# 2. Calculation
# `test_loader` stores all test inputs; it can be a DataLoader object in Pytorch or a list of data samples.
criterion.assess(test_loader)
# If test inputs are gradually given from a data stream (e.g., in fuzzing), then calculate the coverage as the following way.
for data in data_stream:
    criterion.step(data)

# 3. Result
# The following instruction assigns the current coverage value to `cov`.
cov = criterion.current

Experiments

After prepring all data and pretrained models, you should first set these paths in constants.py.

Diversity of Test Suites

Discriminative (Image) Model

python eval_diversity_image.py --model resnet50 --dataset CIFAR10 --criterion NC --hyper 0.75
  • --model - The tested DNN.
    chocies = [resnet50, vgg16_bn, mobilenet_v2]

  • --dataset - Training dataset of the tested DNN. Test suites are generated using test split of this dataset.
    choices = [CIFAR10, ImageNet]

  • --criterion - The used coverage criterion.
    choices = [NC, KMNC, NBC, SNAC, TKNC, TKNP, CC, LSC, DSC, MDSC, NLC]

  • --hyper - The hyper-parameter of the criterion. None if the criterion does not have hyper-paramater (i.e., NLC, SNAC, NBC).

Discriminative (Text) Model

python eval_diversity_text.py --criterion NC --hyper 0.75
  • --criterion - The used coverage criterion.
    choices = [NC, KMNC, NBC, SNAC, TKNC, TKNP, CC, LSC, DSC, MDSC, NLC]

  • --hyper - The hyper-parameter of the criterion. None if the criterion does not have hyper-paramater (i.e., NLC, SNAC, NBC).

Generative Model

Our tested generative model is BigGAN. We reuse the codebase of the official implementation and hardcode some parameters; see BigGAN-projects/CIFAR10 and BigGAN-projects/ImageNet.

Since we directly insert the BigGAN project path into system path, passing arguments to eval_diversity_gen.py in bash has conflicts with BigGAN projects. Therefore, we recommend first setting the following arguments in eval_diversity_gen.py and then run python eval_diversity_gen.py.

Of course, this should be implemented in a more elegant way...🫠 I will do it later.

  • --criterion - The used coverage criterion.
    choices = [NC, KMNC, NBC, SNAC, TKNC, TKNP, CC, LSC, DSC, MDSC, NLC]

  • --hyper - The hyper-parameter of the criterion. None if the criterion does not have hyper-paramater (i.e., NLC, SNAC, NBC).

Fault-Revealing Capability of Test Suites

python eval_fault_revealing.py --dataset CIFAR10 --model resnet50 --criterion NC --hyper 0.75 --AE PGD --split test
  • --AE - AE generation algorithm.
    choices = [PGD, CW]

  • --split - Which split of the dataset to generate AEs.
    choices = [train, test]

Guiding Input Mutation in DNN Testing

python fuzz.py --dataset CIFAR10 --model resnet50 --criterion NC

For random mutation (i.e., without any criterion as objective), run

python fuzz_rand.py --dataset CIFAR10 --model resnet50
