Beyond Her: Safety Dynamics in Role-play AI Companions
Zehang Deng, Zhaoyang Xie, Changzhou Han +8
The film 'Her' pictured a future of love between humans and AI. That future has quietly emerged in the form of Role-play AI Companions (RACs), where emotionally responsive interact…
Beyond Attack Success Rate: Examining Trigger Leakage in Vision-Language Agentic Systems
Jiamin Chang, Salil Kanhere, Piotr Koniusz +3
Vision-Language Agentic Systems (VLAS) connect visual perception to planning, tool use, and physical actions. This means backdoor-type triggers can propagate through both decision…
SoK: Unlearnability and Unlearning for Model Dememorization
Mengying Zhang, Derui Wang, Ruoxi Sun +3
Advanced model dememorization methods, including availability poisoning (unlearnability) and machine unlearning, are emerging as key safeguards against data misuse in machine learn…
LAPS: A Length-Aware-Prefill LLM Serving System
Jianshu She, Zonghang Li, Hongchao Du +7
LAPS identifies and disaggregates requests with different prompt lengths in LLM serving to reduce TTFT latency. While recent systems have decoupled the prefill and decode stages to…
Approximation Algorithm for Constrained -Center Clustering: A Local Search Approach
Chaoqi Jia, Longkun Guo, Kewen Liao +3
Clustering is a long-standing research problem and a fundamental tool in AI and data analysis. The traditional k-center problem, a fundamental theoretical challenge in clustering,…
Cross-Modal Unlearning via Influential Neuron Path Editing in Multimodal Large Language Models
Kunhao Li, Wenhao Li, Di Wu +4
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) extend foundation models to real-world applications by integrating inputs such as text and vision. However, their broad knowledge capacity…
