Sparse Autoencoders are Capable LLM Jailbreak Mitigators
Yannick Assogba, Jacopo Cortellazzi, Javier Abad +3
Jailbreak attacks remain a persistent threat to large language model safety. We propose Context-Conditioned Delta Steering (CC-Delta), an SAE-based defense that identifies jailbrea…
On The Effectiveness-Fluency Trade-Off In LLM Conditioning: A Systematic Study
Iuri Macocco, Pau RodrÃguez, Arno Blaas +3
Controlling the output of Large Language Models (LLMs) is a central challenge for their reliable deployment, yet a clear understanding of the involved trade-offs remains elusive. C…
GenCtrl -- A Formal Controllability Toolkit for Generative Models
Emily Cheng, Carmen Amo Alonso, Federico Danieli +4
As generative models become ubiquitous, there is a critical need for fine-grained control over the generation process. Yet, while controlled generation methods from prompting to fi…
Dynamically Scaled Activation Steering
Alex Ferrando, Xavier Suau, Jordi Gonzà lez +1
Activation steering has emerged as a powerful method for guiding the behavior of generative models towards desired outcomes such as toxicity mitigation. However, most existing meth…
