arXiv:2605. 28021v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection is essential for deploying machine learning models in open-world and safety-critical scenarios, where test inputs may deviate from the training distribution and overconfident predictions on unknown samples can lead to unreliable decisions.
Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection remains challenging for image classifiers, especially when near-OOD samples lie close to in-distribution (ID) class boundaries. Recent vision-language detectors imp...

The paper introduces PLSP (Pre-hoc Liminal Space Profiling), an anticipatory framework for predicting out-of-distribution (OOD) data before inference. It proposes a dataset‑independent metric called the CREDibility Score (CREDS) and introduces credibility curves and heat maps to analyze a model’s maximum credibility and behavior across datasets. Experiments on multiple datasets show that CREDS can improve model robustness to OOD prediction.
arXiv:2503. 05169v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Applying machine learning to increasingly high-dimensional problems with sparse or biased training data increases the risk that a model is used on inputs outside its training domain.

arXiv:2601. 12359v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prompt injection attacks have become an increasing vulnerability for LLM applications, where adversarial prompts exploit indirect input channels such as emails or user-generated content to circumvent alignment safeguards and induce harmful or unintended outputs.
arXiv:2607. 22045v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Counterfactual explanations are a prominent approach in explainable artificial intelligence (xAI), providing actionable guidance on what input changes would alter a model's prediction to a desired outcome.
Explainable Deepfake Detection with Feature-robust Augmentation and Evidence-grounded Explanation Optimization proposes a new framework that improves deepfake detection and interpretability. The approach introduces Feature-robust Augmentation—diversified degradation-aware strategies combined with supervised contrastive learning and a mean-teacher architecture—to maintain accuracy on low-quality images. For explanations, it employs evidence-grounded preference optimization, guiding the model to focus on genuine manipulation traces by learning from chosen-rejected explanation pairs that omit evidence or inject irrelevant details. The method achieved first place in the ACM Multimedia 2026 Explainable Deepfake Detection Challenge and is publicly available on GitHub.
