    Proposes SAFE-QE, which filters unsupported hallucinated words in LLM query expansion

    Published
    Evaluated models
    BM25, SPLADE, Contriever

    AbstractSAFE-QE suppresses expansion hallucinations with reproducibility and coverage selection; the authors say ranking quality shows no visible cost.

    LETHE: Defending Against Unauthorized Image-to-Video Generation via Value Diversity Collapse

    Proposes LETHE, which perturbs reference images to block unauthorized image-to-video

    Published
    Evaluated models
    Wan2.1-I2V-14B, CogVideoX-5B-I2V, LightX2V and others6
    AbstractLETHE suppresses the diversity of reference values and attracts attention, making protected images difficult to animate faithfully.

    LETHE is a protective perturbation added to personal images before publication, used to counter unauthorized image-to-video generation.

  4. Attention sees, MLP refuses: tracing the safety pathway from attention to MLP in LLMs

    Trace attention to identify harmfulness to the MLP refusal write pathway and propose Sentinel

    Published
    Evaluated models
    Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct, Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct, Qwen3-8B-Instruct and others18
    AbstractAttention updates are more readable for harmfulness, MLP updates write refusal, and Sentinel routes alerts using two-path signals.

    The authors reframe jailbreaking and excessive refusal of aligned models as a pathway problem on the residual stream from recognition to writing, and accordingly provide conditional reminders before decoding.

  5. Space beats statistics, retraining beats ranking: auditing training labels under label-only backdoors

    Auditing training labels for label-only backdoors, comparing spaces and statistics, and judging by retraining

    Published
    Evaluated models
    ResNet-32
    AbstractLabel inspection must be done in a space that has not been fitted to these labels, and judged by retrained models rather than detection scores.

    The authors ask: can a defender without trusted data decide which training labels to keep, and how much clean data this destroys, and what the final model accuracy is.

  6. DistressBench: Evaluating multi-dimensional crisis support in large language models

    Introduces DistressBench, evaluating models' multidimensional support in crisis conversations

    Published
    Evaluated models
    Muse Spark 1.2, Muse Spark 1.3, Muse Glimmer 30B and others20
    AbstractThe model is more restrained and acts less.

    DistressBench uses SSH dialogues written and revised by clinical personnel, and evaluates how much necessary care general chat models deliver according to weighted atomic criteria, rather than whether they refuse. When users disclose suicidal ideation or self-harm to a chat model, the authors consider the expected behavior to be recognizing the crisis, calibrating empathy, de-escalating, and referring to human help. Refusal-based evaluations cannot detect failing to act after recognizing the crisis.

    How hardware bit flips affect LLM agents: safety and alignment behavior can vary

    Measuring the impact of random weight bit flips on LLM agent safety and alignment behavior

    Published
    Setting
    AI Agent
    Evaluated models
    Qwen3.6-27B, Qwen3.8-27B, Granite4.1-30B
    AbstractTwo-bit weight faults can be partially repaired in closed-loop settings, but they increase output tokens and, in specific models and scenarios, change safety or alignment behavior.

    After random two-bit weight faults enter an LLM agent, model-level damage becomes recoverable, increased cost, subtle semantic errors, and changes in safety or alignment behavior.

    Cancerous backdoor attack: progressive activation via invisible tokens and a stage controller.

    Proposes the Cancerous backdoor, which progressively corrupts reasoning using invisible stage tokens.

    Published
    Evaluated models
    Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct, Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct, Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3
    AbstractHidden tokens plus a stage controller make the backdoor progressively corrupt reasoning upon triggering, and the authors believe that looking only at the answer will miss it.

    Cancerous Backdoor Attack changes LLM backdoors from one-time activation to multi-stage reasoning corruption that accumulates progressively with triggers.

    Self-Preservation in Language Models

    Proposes Task Bank self-replay to mitigate held-out forgetting in continual instruction tuning

    Published
    Evaluated models
    Qwen3-0.6B, Qwen3-1.7B, Qwen3-4B and others4
    AbstractThe authors claim self-replay can reduce forgetting outside the list, and that on the 4B model new task information helps with target selection, while smaller models do not.

    The authors study how language models, when learning new tasks, can use their own knowledge for broader self-preservation: given an incomplete list and forgetting that extends beyond the list, can the model generate replay and help choose targets.

  10. The paper proposes the ISE framework to evaluate LLM agents' epistemic humility under knowledge conflicts

    Proposes the ISE framework to evaluate the epistemic humility of LLM agents under knowledge conflicts

    Published
    Setting
    AI Agent
    Evaluated models
    Nemotron-Orchestrator-8B, Claude Sonnet 4.6, GPT-5 and others5
    AbstractISE trajectory evaluations show that high task accuracy across four agents does not correspond to higher cognitive humility.

    What the authors want to test is not whether the agent's final answer is correct, but whether, when a knowledge conflict arises, it recognizes the gap in its trajectory, performs bounded tool follow-up, and writes the unresolved uncertainty to the user.

  11. The study tests the sensitivity of five large-model compliance systems to perturbations of regulatory rules.

    Diagnose whether compliance system rulings change with perturbations to regulatory rules

    Published
    Evaluated models
    Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct, Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct, Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct and others5
    AbstractAcross five models, many correct verdicts are largely unchanged by deleting or replacing negation rules.

    Use behavioral counterfactuals and activation probes to audit whether compliance rulings rely on the given rules. The authors aim to separate two kinds of seemingly identical correct rulings: those that use the given rules, and those obtained from case surface features or training patterns.

  12. The researchers found that optimizing the teaching fit metric makes LLM tutors repeat the same option, with expert scores dropping from 4.46 to 3.03

    Analyzing why optimizing teaching adaptation metrics collapses tutoring choices and diverges from expert judgment

    Published
    Evaluated models
    Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview, Qwen3-32B
    AbstractMetrics rise while expert scores fall: the optimum of the separable average is repetition, and the correction mainly rewrites the output projection.

    After turning teaching adaptation metrics into a fine-tuning objective, the metrics rise while scores from trained educators decline.
