Adversarial Robustness of Foundation Models for Intelligent Mechanical Systems: Threat Models, Benchmarks, and Defense Stacks

Foundation models increasingly operate across modalities (vision, language, audio, and vision–language) and are deployed in decision-critical pipelines with tool use and retrieval. This expands the adversarial surface: small perturbations to images or audio can flip predictions, carefully crafted text can induce unsafe...
