The paper presents a traffic sign recognition system that extends YOLOv2 with a branched architecture and geometric feature integration. By adding intermediate prediction layers, the model can terminate inference early for easy cases, reducing computation time, while unsupervised Bayesian segmentation supplies geometric templates to improve classification of visually similar signs. Experiments on a combined GTSDB/GTSRB dataset show that the branched model achieves 0.680 mAP in 0.647 s, and adding geometric verification during inference raises mAP to 0.713.

FSPGD introduces a feature-space black-box attack for semantic segmentation that targets intermediate representations rather than just output logits. The method uses a dual loss: an external loss to disrupt cross-model feature alignment and an internal loss to reduce consistency among same-class instances. Experiments on Pascal VOC 2012 and Cityscapes show that FSPGD outperforms existing logit-level and segmentation-specific attacks across CNN and Transformer backbones, and its adversarial examples improve robustness when used for training.

The paper investigates how Vision Language Models (VLMs) can be fooled by small, human‑imperceptible changes to images. It introduces a gradient‑based attack that targets only the vision encoder, reducing computational cost while still effectively disrupting both untargeted and targeted multimodal alignment. Experiments on open‑source VLMs such as Qwen2.5‑VL, Granite‑Vision, FastVLM, and Phi‑3.5‑Vision demonstrate that these perturbations can significantly alter the models’ textual outputs.

SMDDFNet is a deep learning detector designed for traffic sign images, addressing challenges such as small objects, scale variation, and occlusion. It combines a Dynamic Dual Fusion (DDF) module—integrating multi-scale attention and frequency‑domain dynamic filtering—with a state‑space modeling backbone that captures long‑range dependencies efficiently. A multi‑scale feature fusion neck further aggregates pyramid features, enabling robust localization of small signs while maintaining real‑time throughput on datasets like TT100K, GTSDB, PASCAL VOC, and Roboflow.
