Allow Armory users to turn off progress bars in attacks/defenses #640

Closed mzweilin closed 4 years ago

mzweilin commented 4 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Armory has its own progress bar for a scenario. The frequently updated tqdm in ART makes it difficult to read the progress bar in Armory.

Describe the solution you'd like Can we have an option to turn off the progress bars in ART?

I am aware that at least two modules have tqdm enabled: art/attacks/evasion/projected_gradient_descent/projected_gradient_descent_pytorch.py art/defences/preprocessor/video_compression.py

How about adding a keyword argument show_progress_bar=True to these modules? I understand that the progress bars could be useful in other scenarios and it should be turned on by default. Just want to have an option for Armory users.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Hi @mzweilin Thank you for raising this issue and I think it is a good idea. So far we have the new verbose argument in DeepFool Carlini&Wagner attacks and ProjectedGradientDescent* which allows to disable the progress bar, but I agree we should provide the verbose option for all attacks and defences.
