Do Models Share Safety Representations? Cross-Model Steering for Safe Visual Generation
Tobia Poppi, Silvia Cappelletti, Sara Sarto +5
Recent progress in generative modeling has made safety control a central challenge, yet existing approaches remain largely model-specific, requiring retraining or tailored interven…
CounterVid: Counterfactual Video Generation for Mitigating Action and Temporal Hallucinations in Video-Language Models
Tobia Poppi, Burak Uzkent, Amanmeet Garg +7
Video-language models (VLMs) achieve strong multimodal understanding but remain prone to hallucinations, especially when reasoning about actions and temporal order. Existing mitiga…
Improving LLM First-Token Predictions in Multiple-Choice Question Answering via Output Prefilling
Silvia Cappelletti, Tobia Poppi, Samuele Poppi +5
Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly evaluated on multiple-choice question answering (MCQA) tasks using *first-token probability* (FTP), which selects the answer option wh…
Hyperbolic Safety-Aware Vision-Language Models
Tobia Poppi, Tejaswi Kasarla, Pascal Mettes +2
Addressing the retrieval of unsafe content from vision-language models such as CLIP is an important step towards real-world integration. Current efforts have relied on unlearning t…
Safe-CLIP: Removing NSFW Concepts from Vision-and-Language Models
Samuele Poppi, Tobia Poppi, Federico Cocchi +3
Large-scale vision-and-language models, such as CLIP, are typically trained on web-scale data, which can introduce inappropriate content and lead to the development of unsafe and b…
