The paper introduces the Graded Color Attribution (GCA) dataset, a benchmark that tests whether Vision‑Language Models (VLMs) and humans can articulate and follow a threshold rule for labeling objects by color. In experiments, humans consistently adhere to their stated rules, while VLMs—despite accurately estimating color coverage—often violate their own introspective rules, especially when world‑knowledge priors are present. This discrepancy highlights a miscalibration in VLM self‑knowledge that differs from human cognition.

Text-to-image diffusion models have achieved high visual fidelity and broad adoption, but remain vulnerable to safety violations when adversaries exploit them to synthesize illicit content. Existing alignment paradigms, from input sanitization to structural feature pruning, are largely organized around unsafe concepts explicitly exposed during filtering, editing, or localization.

SafeStyle is a training‑free framework that injects calibrated style residuals into frozen diffusion models for reference‑guided stylization. It estimates style‑supported and content‑associated subspaces from small calibration sets, then transports purified style evidence across adaptive spatial granularity while limiting its influence with a residual‑norm budget. Experiments on texture‑ and geometry‑dominant styles show high DINO style similarity (0.432–0.474) with minimal semantic leakage (0.8%).
