VerTox is a framework that turns corpus poisoning of neural ranking models into a verifiable reward‑guided reinforcement learning problem. By fine‑tuning compact large language models with reward shaping that couples ranking distortion and factual corruption, VerTox generates fluent, low‑perplexity adversarial documents that frequently outrank target items across multiple ranking architectures, including a commercial embedding model. Experiments show near‑perfect attack success and significant degradation of downstream retrieval‑augmented generation performance.
RAGSentinel is a training‑free, label‑free defense designed for black‑box retrieval‑augmented generation systems. It employs a surrogate encoder to detect hidden‑state shifts caused by retrieved documents, removes shared topic directions, and filters poisoned documents as geometric outliers from a robust majority consensus. The method is proven to recover a poison‑free majority context under honest‑majority and representation‑separation assumptions, and experiments show it keeps attack success rates low while maintaining accuracy across multiple datasets, LLM families, and adaptive attacks.

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.
