Closing the Safety Gap: Surgical Concept Erasure in Visual Autoregressive Models
Xinhao Zhong, Yimin Zhou, Zhiqi Zhang +6
The rapid progress of visual autoregressive (VAR) models has brought new opportunities for text-to-image generation, but also heightened safety concerns. Existing concept erasure t…
Revisiting the Privacy Risks of Split Inference: A GAN-Based Data Reconstruction Attack via Progressive Feature Optimization
Yixiang Qiu, Yanhan Liu, Hongyao Yu +4
The growing complexity of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) has led to the adoption of Split Inference (SI), a collaborative paradigm that partitions computation between edge devices and…
Revisiting Backdoor Attacks on LLMs: A Stealthy and Practical Poisoning Framework via Harmless Inputs
Jiawei Kong, Hao Fang, Xiaochen Yang +5
Recent studies have widely investigated backdoor attacks on Large Language Models (LLMs) by inserting harmful question-answer (QA) pairs into their training data. However, we revis…
Neural Antidote: Class-Wise Prompt Tuning for Purifying Backdoors in CLIP
Jiawei Kong, Hao Fang, Sihang Guo +5
While pre-trained Vision-Language Models (VLMs) such as CLIP exhibit impressive representational capabilities for multimodal data, recent studies have revealed their vulnerability…
Benchmarking Open-ended Audio Dialogue Understanding for Large Audio-Language Models
Kuofeng Gao, Shu-Tao Xia, Ke Xu +2
Large Audio-Language Models (LALMs), such as GPT-4o, have recently unlocked audio dialogue capabilities, enabling direct spoken exchanges with humans. The potential of LALMs broade…
