Towards One-for-All Robustness Across a Continuum of Threat Levels

Adversarially robust models often overfit to a specific attack budget, necessitating multiple specialized models for diverse and dynamic adversarial environments, a strategy that becomes fundamentally intractable as the threat space grows. This raises an open challenge: can we achieve strong robustness across a continuum of threat levels within a single model? We propose the Threat Conditional Network (TCN), grounded in a representation factorization framework that decomposes representation learning into a threat-invariant shared backbone and a lightweight threat-conditional adaptor. TCN conditions a single model on the perturbation level via Fourier-based embeddings and channel-wise affine modulation, and is trained against a distribution over perturbation budgets, enabling flexible and seamless adaptation across an infinite continuum of threat levels during inference. Extensive experiments on CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and Tiny-ImageNet show that TCN matches or surpasses a full ensemble of budget-specialized models with a single set of parameters, generalizes to unseen perturbation budgets, and transfers robustly under mismatched threat conditions, with only 4.6\% parameter overhead. These contributions chart a promising path toward adaptive and generalizable robustness in dynamic and diverse threat environments.

Understanding and Exploiting Phase Sensitivity for Attacking Large Vision–Language Models

This paper proposes a novel LVLM attack method, called BadPhase with further backdoor designs, to implant adversarial phase as triggers into any image inputs via data poisoning so as to control the LVLMs’ predictions and finds that LVLMs are sensitive to the phase-aware image structure.

Enhancing robustness of deep learning-based malware detection against adversarial attacks

This paper introduces DefendMal, a novel framework that synergistically combines Denoise Autoencoder with Sequence Squeezing, a Context-aware Adversarial Generator (CAG-AdvGAN), Projected Gradient Descent (PGD) adversarial training, and a Positive–Negative Detector with Variational Autoencoder (PNDetector-VAE) to enhance robustness against evolving adversarial threats.

Parameter-Efficient Dual-Loss Adaptation with Logit Divergence: A Unified Approach for Adversarial Example Detection and Robust Inference

D3Adapter is presented, a threat-aware framework that unifies adversarial example detection (AED) and robust inference and scalability across datasets with varying numbers of classes is studied, showing that unified detection and robust inference can be achieved with predictable overhead proportional to the number of adapters.
