Backdoor-Powered Prompt Injection Attacks Nullify Defense Methods
Yulin Chen, Haoran Li, Yuan Sui +2
With the development of technology, large language models (LLMs) have dominated the downstream natural language processing (NLP) tasks. However, because of the LLMs' instruction-fo…
EvoTest: Evolutionary Test-Time Learning for Self-Improving Agentic Systems
Yufei He, Juncheng Liu, Yue Liu +5
A fundamental limitation of current AI agents is their inability to learn complex skills on the fly at test time, often behaving like "clever but clueless interns" in novel environ…
What-If Analysis of Large Language Models: Explore the Game World Using Proactive Thinking
Yuan Sui, Yanming Zhang, Yi Liao +5
LLMs struggle with decision-making in high-stakes environments like MOBA games, primarily due to a lack of proactive reasoning and limited understanding of complex game dynamics. T…
Enabling Self-Improving Agents to Learn at Test Time With Human-In-The-Loop Guidance
Yufei He, Ruoyu Li, Alex Chen +8
Large language model (LLM) agents often struggle in environments where rules and required domain knowledge frequently change, such as regulatory compliance and user risk screening.…
TopicAttack: An Indirect Prompt Injection Attack via Topic Transition
Yulin Chen, Haoran Li, Yuexin Li +3
