CogniDir: Combating Cognitive Malicious Comments via Adaptive Distributional Learning for Robust Fake News Detection

Read the original on arXiv AI →

CogniDir is an adaptive distributional learning framework designed to improve fake news detection against new psychologically grounded malicious comments generated by Large Language Models. It reframes robust detection as a dynamic data mixture optimization problem, using cognitive psychology to formalize adversarial paradigms and an information‑theoretic score to guide adaptive sampling of training data. Experiments on three benchmarks show that CogniDir achieves state‑of‑the‑art robustness, boosting F1 scores by up to 17.9% over existing baselines under heterogeneous AI‑generated attacks.

Evidence-Consistent Generative Detection under Scenario-Level Distribution Shift

The paper introduces a new evaluation setting called scenario‑level out‑of‑distribution (SL‑OOD) detection for SMS and voice phishing, where entire attack scenarios are omitted from training while the label space stays fixed. It shows that high in‑distribution performance does not guarantee robustness to unseen scenarios, attributing this to scenario memorization. The authors propose ECoG, an evidence‑consistent generative framework that uses evidence‑span supervision and a rationale‑label consistency objective, achieving notable improvements in Macro‑F1, reduced prediction‑rationale inconsistency, and higher token‑level overlap with reference evidence.

Beyond Global Scalars: Synergizing Token-Level Statistics and Deep Semantics for Adversarial AIGC Text Detection

The paper introduces MOSAIC, a large adversarial benchmark for detecting AI-generated text, and presents NeuroStat, a new framework that combines token‑level probabilistic logits with deep semantic hidden states from a single language model. NeuroStat fuses these signals via Macro‑State Residual Modulation and uses orthogonal and contrastive losses to learn complementary representations. Experiments show that NeuroStat outperforms existing methods on MOSAIC, achieving superior robustness against adversarial attacks.

Sledgehammer or Scalpel? A Fine-grained Adaptive Framework for Implicit Hate Speech

The paper introduces FAID, a fine‑grained adaptive framework for detecting implicit hate speech. It first classifies samples into Shallow, Targeted, or Context‑Dependent categories and then applies tailored strategies—prompt‑tuning for shallow cases, knowledge augmentation for targeted ones, and an agentic prompt‑generation system for context‑dependent posts. Experiments on four benchmark datasets show that FAID outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines by allocating computational effort only where needed.
