Dual Adversarial Fine-tuning for Enhancing Robustness of Large Vision Language Model

arXiv:2607. 18958v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs), represented by LLaVA and GPT-4V, have demonstrated remarkable capabilities, their visual inputs remain vulnerable to adversarial attacks, posing significant security risks.

Breaking the weakest link to evade vision language models

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.

Yuvion VL: A Multimodal Foundation Model for Adversarial Content and AI Safety

arXiv:2606. 25034v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: General-purpose models often struggle to reliably identify and understand real-world multimodal risks, largely due to the inherent multimodal adversarial nature of content and AI safety.

A Step Towards Robust Unsupervised Domain Adaptation via Fine-Tuning and Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2607. 03600v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Adversarial robustness in Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) remains a significant challenge due to noisy pseudo labels and inherent distributional shifts between the clean source and adversarially perturbed target domains.
