QuanText is a training‑free, large‑language‑model‑agnostic mechanism for releasing textual datasets that protects dataset‑level secrets such as the proportion of records with a particular diagnosis or gender. It perturbs both the secret distribution and correlated attribute distributions by selecting candidate release distributions close to the private empirical distribution and rewriting each text sample to match the chosen distribution using attribute‑related snippets. The method is inspired by the Statistic Maximal Leakage framework and, under idealized conditions, satisfies an SML guarantee, while empirical evaluations show a superior privacy‑utility trade‑off compared to existing data generation baselines.

The paper introduces a training‑free approach to detect policy violations in large language models by treating the task as an out‑of‑distribution problem in the model’s activation space. It uses whitening‑inspired techniques to compute policy‑violation scores directly from normalized hidden activations, requiring only the policy text and a few illustrative examples. Experiments on several LLMs and policy benchmarks show the method achieves up to 86.0% F1, outperforming fine‑tuned and LLM‑as‑a‑judge baselines while being computationally lightweight.
