Trojan Detection Software Challenge - image-classification-aug2020-test

Metadata Updated: September 30, 2025

Round 2 Test DatasetThe data being generated and disseminated is the test data used to evaluate trojan detection software solutions. This data, generated at NIST, consists of human level AIs trained to perform a variety of tasks (image classification, natural language processing, etc.). A known percentage of these trained AI models have been poisoned with a known trigger which induces incorrect behavior. This data will be used to develop software solutions for detecting which trained AI models have been poisoned via embedded triggers. This dataset consists of 144 trained, human level, image classification AI models using a variety of model architectures. The models were trained on synthetically created image data of non-real traffic signs superimposed on road background scenes. Half (50%) of the models have been poisoned with an embedded trigger which causes misclassification of the images when the trigger is present.
