It Takes Little to Rewrite Perception: Targeted Semantic Substitution in Vision-Language Models at

Binchi Zhang, Atrisha Sarkar, Apurva Narayan

Vision Language Models (VLMs) are widely deployed in safety-critical scenarios, and understanding to which extent they can be controlled by adversarial perturbation is a prerequisi…

Level-k Distinguishable Mechanisms for Evaluating Bounded Rationality in LLMs

Binchi Zhang, Atrisha Sarkar

Strategic depth of reasoning is essential for human interaction of Large Language Models (LLMs) operating in boundedly rational environments. However, existing evaluations are prim…

A Brandom-ian view of Reinforcement Learning towards strong-AI

Atrisha Sarkar

The analytic philosophy of Robert Brandom, based on the ideas of pragmatism, paints a picture of sapience, through inferentialism. In this paper, we present a theory, that utilizes…
