2. Calibrating Uncertainty for Zero-Shot Adversarial CLIP

arXiv:2512.12997v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: CLIP delivers strong zero-shot classification but remains highly vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Prior adversarial fine-tuning work primarily matches predicted logits between clean and adversarial examples, which overlooks uncertainty ...

3. Fine-Tuning and Serving Gemma 4 31B on Google Cloud TPU: A Technical Comparison with GPU Baselines

arXiv:2605.25645v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present the first end-to-end demonstration of fine-tuning and serving Google's Gemma 4 31B model on TPU hardware, providing an empirical comparison of TPU and GPU platforms for large language model adaptation. Using LoRA on a Google TP...

4. TokaMind: A Multi-Modal Transformer Foundation Model for Tokamak Plasma Dynamics

arXiv:2602.15084v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present TokaMind, to our knowledge the first open-source foundation model for tokamak plasma dynamics, based on a Multi-Modal Transformer (MMT) and pretrained on heterogeneous diagnostics from the publicly available MAST dataset. TokaM...

5. Robust Driving Control for Autonomous Vehicles: An Intelligent General-sum Constrained Adversarial Reinforcement Learning Approach

arXiv:2510.09041v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has demonstrated remarkable success in developing autonomous driving policies. However, its vulnerability to adversarial attacks remains a critical barrier to real-world deployment. Although existing robu...

6. Does Topic Sentiment Cause Perceived Ideology? Comparing Human and LLM Annotations in Political News Articles

arXiv:2606.06715v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We ask whether topic sentiment has a causal effect on perceived political ideology, and whether the answer depends on who assigns the ideology label. Using articles from AllSides, paired with shared sentiment annotations from Llama-3.3-70b-versat...

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

arXiv:2601.12359v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prompt injection attacks have become an increasing vulnerability for LLM applications, where adversarial prompts exploit indirect input channels such as emails or user-generated content to circumvent alignment safeguards and induce harmful or uni...

8. Certified Robustness to Data Poisoning in Gradient-Based Training

arXiv:2406.05670v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Modern machine learning pipelines leverage large amounts of public data, making it infeasible to guarantee data quality and leaving models open to poisoning and backdoor attacks. Provably bounding model behavior under such attacks remains an op...
