arXiv:2606. 23872v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As generative models increasingly produce samples that are indistinguishable from human-created content, it becomes difficult to determine whether a given data point was part of a model's natural training set or was generated by the model itself, especially when models memorize and reproduce training data.

arXiv:2607. 13541v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: To overcome data scarcity and privacy constraints in data collection, it has become standard practice across academia and industry to augment real training data with text-to-image (T2I)-generated synthetic data, a paradigm we term Real-Synthetic Mix-Training (RSMT).

Vision-Language Large Models (VLLMs) trained on massive crawled corpora raise pressing copyright and data-provenance concerns. These concerns are particularly acute in healthcare, where patient medical images paired with clinical reports demand rigorous privacy safeguards.
The paper investigates the vulnerability of Gaussian‑noised text embeddings to inversion attacks. It identifies a "Double Noise Trap" that hampers standard generative methods and introduces DAEI, a denoising‑aware pipeline that significantly outperforms existing baselines in reconstructing original text. Experiments show DAEI improves BLEU by 154% and token‑level metrics by 32–60%.

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.

Large Language Models (LLMs) raise growing concerns about privacy leakage and copyright compliance. Membership inference is a key tool for assessing such risks, but existing studies mainly focus on whether specific samples or sample-based data units are used for training.
