Research & Papers

2. Adversarial Training Without Input Gradients via Low-Rank Householder Expansions

arXiv:2608.26963v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work concerns adversarial training against the small-norm adversarial examples that arise from the inherent input instability of a trained deep neural network. Examples in this class are small as measured in the relative $\ell^2$-norm, and the...

3. Federated Adversarial Training with Transformers

arXiv:2206.02131v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Federated learning (FL) has emerged to enable global model training over distributed clients' data while preserving its privacy. However, the global trained model is vulnerable to the evasion attacks especially, the adversarial examples (AEs), ...

4. AirLLM: Diffusion Policy-based Adaptive LoRA for Remote Fine-Tuning of LLM over the Air

arXiv:2507.11515v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Operating Large Language Models (LLMs) on edge devices is increasingly challenged by limited communication bandwidth and strained computational and memory costs. Thus, cloud-assisted remote fine-tuning becomes indispensable. Nevertheless, exist...

5. Fine-Tuning of Transformer models with Frames

arXiv:2608.26430v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) strategies such as Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) are effective solutions for fine-tuning large-scale pre-trained models; however, their memory requirements scale with the size of the model, $\mathcal{O}(dr)$, whe...

6. Distinct Profiles of Run-to-Run Score Reliability and Expert-Panel Alignment Across Four LLM Evaluators of Simulated Japanese-Language AI-to-AI Counseling

arXiv:2507.02950v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) increasingly evaluate generated dialogue, but repeatable scores do not necessarily align with professional judgment. This observational fixed-benchmark study compared four configured LLM evaluator systems (GPT...

7. Beyond F1: Evaluating Coverage and Failure Recovery in AI Model Security Scanners

arXiv:2608.27424v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Static scanners are increasingly used to identify executable or otherwise unsafe content in machine- learning artifacts, yet conventional evaluation metrics characterize only cases where a scanner yields a usable security judgment. We evaluate Mo...

8. Stack Trace-Based Crash Deduplication with Transformer Adaptation

arXiv:2508.19449v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Automated crash reporting systems generate large volumes of duplicate reports, overwhelming issue-tracking systems and increasing developer workload. Traditional stack trace-based deduplication methods---relying on string similarity, rule...
