Flash-BoN: Instant Drafts for Inference-Time Scaling in Diffusion Models

Ruchit Rawal, Reza Shirkavand, Sayak Paul +5

Inference-time scaling for text-to-image generation has progressed from simple Best-of- (BoN) sampling to guided search methods that verify and steer candidate trajectories at i…

ARGUS: Hallucination and Omission Evaluation in Video-LLMs

Ruchit Rawal, Reza Shirkavand, Heng Huang +2

Video large language models have not yet been widely deployed, largely due to their tendency to hallucinate. Typical benchmarks for Video-LLMs rely simply on multiple-choice questi…

RAG LLMs are Not Safer: A Safety Analysis of Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Large Language Models

Bang An, Shiyue Zhang, Mark Dredze

Efforts to ensure the safety of large language models (LLMs) include safety fine-tuning, evaluation, and red teaming. However, despite the widespread use of the Retrieval-Augmented…

SolidMark: Evaluating Image Memorization in Generative Models

Nicky Kriplani, Minh Pham, Gowthami Somepalli +2

Recent works have shown that diffusion models are able to memorize training images and emit them at generation time. However, the metrics used to evaluate memorization and its miti…
