I just find line 67 is the only difference between them. But in each iteration, the grad.data will be updated automatically. Why did you "zeros" grad.data by hand?

Thanks. The difference between UMIFGSM and TMIFGSM is equal to the difference between un-target attack and target. More detail can be found in Equation 6-7 and Equation 11-12 of Yinpeng Dong et al. Boosting Adversarial Attacks with Momentum. In our implementation, there are totally different, and you can find these difference in "the loss calculation" and "update x in each iteration". For the zero_(), it is a dummy operation since the var_samples is built newly in each iteration.
Hope answered your questions.
