The Trojan Knowledge: Bypassing Commercial LLM Guardrails via Harmless Prompt Weaving and Adaptive Tree Search
Rongzhe Wei, Peizhi Niu, Xinjie Shen +7
Large language models (LLMs) remain vulnerable to jailbreak attacks that bypass safety guardrails to elicit harmful outputs. Existing approaches overwhelmingly operate within the p…
Differentially Private Relational Learning with Entity-level Privacy Guarantees
Yinan Huang, Haoteng Yin, Eli Chien +2
Learning with relational and network-structured data is increasingly vital in sensitive domains where protecting the privacy of individual entities is paramount. Differential Priva…
Do LLMs Really Forget? Evaluating Unlearning with Knowledge Correlation and Confidence Awareness
Rongzhe Wei, Peizhi Niu, Hans Hao-Hsun Hsu +9
Machine unlearning techniques aim to mitigate unintended memorization in large language models (LLMs). However, existing approaches predominantly focus on the explicit removal of i…
Privacy Amplification in Differentially Private Zeroth-Order Optimization with Hidden States
Eli Chien, Wei-Ning Chen, Pan Li
Zeroth-order optimization has emerged as a promising approach for fine-tuning large language models under differential privacy (DP) and memory constraints. While privacy amplificat…
