CAVI framework uses character-guided token pruning, orthogonal feature modulation, and modality-adaptive role steering to resolve modality-role interference in multimodal RPAs.
Precise Shield identifies safety neurons in VLLMs via activation contrasts and aligns only them with gradient masking, boosting safety, preserving generalization, and enabling zero-shot cross-lingual and cross-modal transfer.
DACO curates a 15,000-concept dictionary from 400K image-caption pairs and uses it to initialize an SAE that enables granular, concept-specific steering of MLLM activations, raising safety scores on MM-SafetyBench and JailBreakV while preserving general capabilities.
RedDiffuser is a reinforced diffusion framework that generates adversarial visual contexts to audit and expose widespread multimodal safety failures in VLMs, increasing unsafe response rates by up to 10.69% on LLaVA with transfer to other models.
A comprehensive survey that taxonomizes safety threats to large models and agents, reviews defenses and benchmarks, and outlines open challenges.
