Research & Papers

1. FT-Dojo: Towards Autonomous LLM Fine-Tuning with Language Agents

arXiv:2603.01712v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Fine-tuning large language models for vertical domains remains labor-intensive, requiring practitioners to curate data, configure training, and iteratively diagnose model behavior. Despite growing interest in autonomous machine learning and lan...

2. A Comparative Study of Machine Learning and Deep Learning for Out-of-Distribution Detection

arXiv:2605.10181v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection is essential for building reliable AI systems, as models that produce outputs for invalid inputs cannot be trusted. Although deep learning (DL) is often assumed to outperform traditional machine learnin...

3. An exponential mechanism based on quadratic approximations for fine-tuning machine learning models with privacy guarantees

arXiv:2605.20521v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fine-tuning adapts a pretrained machine learning model to a small, sensitive dataset, but this process risks memorizing individual new data points, making the model vulnerable to adversaries who seek to extract sensitive information. In this work, ...

4. REFLECTOR: Internalizing Step-wise Reflection against Indirect Jailbreak

arXiv:2605.20654v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate remarkable capabilities, they remain susceptible to sophisticated, multi-step jailbreak attacks that circumvent conventional surface-level safety alignment by exploiting the internal generation proce...

5. Q-SYNTH: Hybrid Quantum-Classical Adversarial Augmentation for Imbalanced Fraud Detection

arXiv:2605.21164v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Credit card fraud detection is fundamentally challenged by extreme class imbalance, where fraudulent transactions are rare yet operationally critical. This imbalance often biases supervised learners toward the legitimate class, leading to high over...

6. Adversarial Robustness in One-Stage Learning-to-Defer

arXiv:2510.10988v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Learning-to-Defer (L2D) enables hybrid decision-making by routing inputs either to a predictor or to external experts. While promising, L2D is highly vulnerable to adversarial perturbations, which can not only flip predictions but also ma...

7. OSCToM: RL-Guided Adversarial Generation for High-Order Theory of Mind

arXiv:2605.20423v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) perform well on many language tasks, but their Theory of Mind (ToM) reasoning is still uneven in complex social settings. Existing benchmarks, including ExploreToM, do not always test the recursive beliefs and informati...
