Harmful Responses Are Jailbreak Templates: Transferring Autoregressive Jailbreaks to Diffusion Language Models

Jinwei Gan, Zifeng Cheng, Zhiwei Jiang +3

Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) enable flexible masked generation through bidirectional context modeling, but this capability also introduces a distinct jailbreak attack su…

Selecting What Matters: Semantic Compression-Guided Selective Pooling for Long-Context Embeddings

Zifeng Cheng, Jie Zheng, Zhiwei Jiang +4

Large language models (LLMs) have shown strong potential as training-free text encoders for long-context embeddings. Existing approaches primarily improve information flow under ca…

Focusing Condition: Inference-Time Self-Contrastive Steering Elicits Better Conditional Text Embeddings in LLMs

Zifeng Cheng, Lingyun Qian, Zhiwei Jiang +5

Extracting conditional text embeddings from large language models (LLMs) is a promising paradigm, as it requires neither additional data nor fine-tuning. Existing methods incorpora…

Accelerating Diffusion Language Models via Structured Suffix Modeling

Zifeng Cheng, Keda Li, Zhiwei Jiang +3

Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) exhibit strong parallel decoding capabilities by denoising multiple tokens in a single generation step. However, this parallelism comes with substa…

Dynamic Distribution-Aware Uncertainty Tracking in Vision-Language Representation Learning

Ao Zhou, Zhiwei Jiang, Zifeng Cheng +4

Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) aims to measure the reliability of model predictions, serving as a critical safeguard for deploying Vision-Language Models (VLMs) in safety-critical…

Step-Level On-Policy Distillation: Interpolating Between On-Policy Distillation and Supervised Fine-Tuning

Changhui Sun, Lanbo Liu, Hang Lei +11

On-policy distillation (OPD) aligns a student model with a teacher's logit distribution on student-generated trajectories. This approach has achieved strong empirical gains and can…

ScaleErasure: Inference-Time Minimal Intervention for Precise Concept Erasure in Next-Scale Autoregressive Image Generation

Cong Wang, Haiyu Wu, Zhiwei Jiang +4

Concept erasure aims to prevent image generative models from producing unsafe content while preserving their general generative capability. Meanwhile, next-scale autoregressive (AR…

Multi-Label Test-Time Adaptation with Bayesian Conditional Priors

Qiru Li, Ao Zhou, Zhiwei Jiang +4

Multi-label recognition with frozen Vision-Language Models (VLMs) is brittle under distribution shift: standard zero-shot inference scores labels independently, ignoring co-occurre…
