Code Monitor Red Teaming for Public-Test-Passing Code

Junchi Liao, Jiawen Deng, Fuji Ren

Visible tests are a common gate for LLM-generated code, but passing them does not certify specification correctness. We study a deployment-like monitoring problem: after code has p…

AMVICC: A Novel Benchmark for Cross-Modal Failure Mode Profiling for VLMs and IGMs

Aahana Basappa, Pranay Goel, Anusri Karra +3

We investigate visual reasoning limitations of both multimodal large language models (MLLMs) and image generation models (IGMs) by creating a novel benchmark to systematically comp…

MANATEE: Inference-Time Lightweight Diffusion Based Safety Defense for LLMs

Chun Yan Ryan Kan, Tommy Tran, Vedant Yadav +4

Defending LLMs against adversarial jailbreak attacks remains an open challenge. Existing defenses rely on binary classifiers that fail when adversarial input falls outside the lear…

MiSCHiEF: A Benchmark in Minimal-Pairs of Safety and Culture for Holistic Evaluation of Fine-Grained Image-Caption Alignment

Sagarika Banerjee, Tangatar Madi, Advait Swaminathan +4

Fine-grained image-caption alignment is crucial for vision-language models (VLMs), especially in socially critical contexts such as identifying real-world risk scenarios or disting…

Visualizing and Benchmarking LLM Factual Hallucination Tendencies via Internal State Analysis and Clustering

Nathan Mao, Varun Kaushik, Shreya Shivkumar +3

Large Language Models (LLMs) often hallucinate, generating nonsensical or false information that can be especially harmful in sensitive fields such as medicine or law. To study thi…

Zero-Shot Embedding Drift Detection: A Lightweight Defense Against Prompt Injections in LLMs

Anirudh Sekar, Mrinal Agarwal, Rachel Sharma +4

Prompt injection attacks have become an increasing vulnerability for LLM applications, where adversarial prompts exploit indirect input channels such as emails or user-generated co…
