Understanding In-Context Multimodal Jailbreaks via Posterior Reweighting

Preliminary reweighting is established as a unifying and predictive framework for understanding and mitigating ICL jailbreak in MLLMs and a posterior-aware inference-time defense is introduced that adaptively injects benign counter-evidence based on estimated risk, effectively suppressing harmful posterior drift while...

Beyond Unsafe Detection: Counterfactually Anchored Evidence Attribution for Multi-Turn LLM Safety Failures

A lightweight hierarchical attribution model is trained that predicts safety violations and attributes them to contributing user turns and token spans and preserves low false positive rates on benign conversations with high-risk vocabulary.

Mitigating LLM sycophancy with RL-based fine-tuning: Bayesian Truth Serum approach

A methodology for mitigating sycophancy that employs the Bayesian Truth Serum (BTS), a peer-prediction mechanism, as the reward in Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) to fine-tune an LLM.

Safeguarding LLMs via Model-Agnostic Latent Safety Signals from Dark Knowledge

LLMs have advanced rapidly, raising growing concerns about their safety. Recent work has proposed approaches to detect and defend against attacks including defenses at decoding stage that leverage models'hidden states. However, existing decoding-stage defenses suffer from two limitations. First, they introduce a trade-...

Euston: Training Away Mathematical Sycophancy Without Losing the Mathematics

Euston is presented, an 8B mathematical claim-verification model trained to resist the all-false composition of the official evaluation sets and the low precision implied at realistic error prevalence, which is principally the all-false composition of the official evaluation sets.

Reference-Based Bias Detection in LLMs via Relative Representations of Hidden States

A reference-based method that audits bias in hidden-state representations across related model variants across related model variants, for example before and after fine-tuning, which is complementary to output-based auditing rather than a replacement for it.
