FastGuide: Accelerating Reward Guidance for Diffusion Large Language Models

Darshan Thaker, Lachlan Ewen MacDonald, René Vidal

Gradient-based reward guidance provides a flexible way to use downstream reward models to control masked diffusion language models at inference time. However, its computational cos…

ANaLOG: Anisotropic Native-Latent Operator Guidance for Solving Inverse Problems

Darshan Thaker, Lachlan Ewen MacDonald, René Vidal

Native-latent guidance is a recent paradigm for solving inverse problems with latent diffusion models. It replaces repeated evaluations of the image-space forward model, each requi…

Scale-Cascaded Diffusion Models for Super-Resolution in Medical Imaging

Darshan Thaker, Mahmoud Mostapha, Radu Miron +2

Diffusion models have been increasingly used as strong generative priors for solving inverse problems such as super-resolution in medical imaging. However, these approaches typical…

SECA: Semantically Equivalent and Coherent Attacks for Eliciting LLM Hallucinations

Buyun Liang, Liangzu Peng, Jinqi Luo +3

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in high-risk domains. However, state-of-the-art LLMs often exhibit hallucinations, raising serious concerns about their relia…

KDA: A Knowledge-Distilled Attacker for Generating Diverse Prompts to Jailbreak LLMs

Buyun Liang, Kwan Ho Ryan Chan, Darshan Thaker +2

Jailbreak attacks exploit specific prompts to bypass LLM safeguards, causing the LLM to generate harmful, inappropriate, and misaligned content. Current jailbreaking methods rely h…

Frequency-Guided Posterior Sampling for Diffusion-Based Image Restoration

Darshan Thaker, Abhishek Goyal, René Vidal

Image restoration aims to recover high-quality images from degraded observations. When the degradation process is known, the recovery problem can be formulated as an inverse proble…
