arXiv:2605. 09697v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In many real-world computer vision applications, including medical imaging and industrial inspection, binary classification tasks are characterized by a severe scarcity of positive samples.
arXiv:2308. 04553v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Visual recognition models are prone to learning spurious correlations induced by a biased training set where certain conditions $B$ (\eg, Indoors) are over-represented in certain classes $Y$ (\eg, Big Dogs).

arXiv:2607. 27995v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Adversarial training can improve the robustness of predictive models to bounded perturbations, often at the cost of statistical efficiency.
EmbeddGAN introduces a new GAN framework that replaces the traditional discriminator with an embedding network trained to maximize statistical dependence between embeddings and real/fake labels using Gini distance correlation (gCor). The generator simultaneously minimizes this dependence, encouraging real and generated samples to become indistinguishable in the learned low‑dimensional embedding space. Experiments on MNIST, CIFAR‑10, and CelebA show competitive performance and notably more stable training dynamics compared to established baselines.
arXiv:2610.34120v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Functional data are costly to collect; samples of tens to hundreds of curves are common. Synthetic data augmentation can help, but its theory is deve...
arXiv:2607. 18088v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Standard evaluation of many recognition systems contains distribution shift by construction, since benchmarks place disjoint conditions in the training and test splits.
arXiv:2502. 18049v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent studies identified an intriguing phenomenon in recursive generative model training known as model collapse, where models trained on data generated by previous models exhibit severe performance degradation.
The paper examines the reliability of deepfake detectors, noting a decline in accuracy from 99.5% to 76% over four years and a drastic drop below 2% when adversarial perturbations are applied. It argues that content alone cannot determine provenance because generators can perfectly reproduce authentic images, so a new detection approach is proposed that certifies authenticity only if a generator cannot faithfully reconstruct the content. The authors demonstrate that their calibrated detector can limit false certifications to 1% while maintaining robustness against bounded‑perturbation attacks, though it struggles with arbitrary transformations.
The paper evaluates twenty deepfake detectors against ten recent generators, finding that accuracy has dropped from 99.5% to 76% and that adversarial perturbations can reduce detector performance to below 2%. It proposes a new detection paradigm that certifies authenticity only when a faithful reconstruction by a known generator is impossible, and shows that this calibrated detector can limit false certifications to at most 1% while remaining robust to bounded‑perturbation attacks. The study also highlights the erosion of post‑hoc verifiability, noting that newer generators can reproduce a larger fraction of previously unreplicable images.
