Persuasive and Compliant Tendencies Predict Group Decision-Making in Humans and Language Models
Wenwen He, Wenke Huang, Wei Yang Bryan Lim +1
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly involved in group decision-making with other LLMs and humans. Yet it remains unclear whether their influence is driven by persuasion-o…
SynChain: Inducing Computer-Use Agent Systems to Construct Their Own Attack Chains
Fuyao Zhang, Jiaming Zhang, Che Wang +7
Computer-use agents~(CUAs) have transformed large language models into persistent execution systems capable of generating, storing, and reusing artifacts like skills and memory ent…
Adversarial Attacks for Good: A Survey of Proactive Protection across the Visual Content Lifecycle
Jiaming Zhang, Boyang Chen, Zherui Li +14
Once visual content enters an AI pipeline, its owner often retains little technical control over how it is used. Legal and regulatory remedies can address misuse, but many technica…
MultiPriv: Benchmarking Individual-Level Privacy Reasoning in Vision-Language Models
Xiongtao Sun, Hui Li, Jiaming Zhang +5
Modern Vision-Language Models (VLMs) pose significant individual-level privacy risks by linking fragmented multimodal data to identifiable individuals through hierarchical chain-of…
Tracing the Dynamics of Refusal: Exploiting Latent Refusal Trajectories for Robust Jailbreak Detection
Xulin Hu, Che Wang, Wei Yang Bryan Lim +2
Representation Engineering analyses often characterize refusal using static directions extracted from terminal or pooled representations. We ask whether this view misses how refusa…
XDomainBench: Diagnosing Reasoning Collapse in High-Dimensional Scientific Knowledge Composition
Gong Zhiren, Tiantong Wu, Jiaming Zhang +9
Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed for knowledge synthesis, yet their capacity for compositional generalization in scientific knowledge remains under-characteri…
