Model Inversion Attacks (MIAs) aim to reconstruct representative training samples of target identities from face recognition models, exposing critical security vulnerabilities. Existing methods typically rely on indirect guidance or highly stochastic guidance, making it difficult to stably optimize generation trajectories toward target facial images.

arXiv:2608. 12876v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Detecting AI-generated images is only half the task: a deployed detector must also justify its verdict, yet existing detectors inherit three failure modes from their training data: real and fake images collected from different sources invite provenance shortcuts, supervised explanation corpora teach templated rationales, and a static forgery corpus leaves the decision boundary standing still while generators keep moving.

DEFUSE is a backdoor detection framework for self‑supervised encoders that uses a conditional diffusion generative model to estimate representation‑conditioned image likelihoods. By fine‑tuning a pretrained diffusion model, DEFUSE performs semantic reconstruction in a reference encoder’s representation space, enabling it to detect backdoors without needing uninfected data or precomputed pseudo‑labels. Experiments show that DEFUSE outperforms existing detectors on both visual SSL and vision‑language encoders, reducing reliance on prior knowledge of the victim model or attack strategy.
