This paper adopts a survivor-centered approach to expose how a "malicious technical ecosystem" of accessible tools enables the creation of AI-generated non-consensual intimate images, while demonstrating that current governance frameworks, such as the NIST AI 100-4 report, fail to effectively regulate this landscape due to flawed underlying assumptions.
This survey provides a comprehensive overview of Federated Learning, detailing its architecture and lifecycle while addressing key challenges like data heterogeneity and privacy, exploring emerging trends and applications, and outlining future research directions for scalable and trustworthy collaborative intelligence.
This paper introduces HCT-QA, a comprehensive benchmark comprising thousands of real-world and synthetic human-centric tables with natural language question-answer pairs, designed to evaluate and improve the performance of Large Language Models and Vision Language Models in querying complex tabular data.

This paper introduces AdAEM, a novel self-extensible evaluation framework that automatically generates adaptive test questions by probing the internal value boundaries of diverse LLMs to overcome the limitations of static benchmarks and provide more informative, distinguishable insights into models' value differences and alignment dynamics.
The paper introduces ESGenius, the first comprehensive benchmark comprising a curated corpus of authoritative ESG documents and a rigorously validated question-answer dataset, which reveals that while large language models exhibit moderate zero-shot performance in sustainability domains, their accuracy significantly improves when grounded in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) using the provided source materials.
The paper introduces KramaBench, a comprehensive benchmark featuring 104 real-world data-to-insight challenges across diverse domains, which reveals that current AI systems struggle to orchestrate end-to-end data pipelines over data lakes, achieving a maximum of only 55% accuracy despite strong performance in isolated tasks.
This paper introduces VisioMath, a benchmark of 1,800 K-12 mathematics problems featuring visually similar diagrams, to reveal that current Large Multimodal Models struggle with fine-grained comparative reasoning due to image-text misalignment and to demonstrate that alignment-oriented strategies can significantly improve performance.
This paper critiques existing evaluations of LLM moral competence for over-relying on simplified scenarios and proposes a novel five-dimensional framework that reveals models often outperform humans in structured tasks but significantly underperform when required to discern moral relevance from noisy information, suggesting current assessments substantially overestimate their true moral reasoning capabilities.
This paper introduces ContextBench, a benchmark for evaluating methods that generate fluent inputs to trigger specific latent features in language models, and demonstrates that enhanced Evolutionary Prompt Optimization variants achieve state-of-the-art performance in balancing elicitation strength with linguistic fluency.
The paper introduces Sysformer, a novel approach that safeguards frozen large language models by learning to adapt system prompts in the embedding space to significantly improve safety robustness against harmful inputs and jailbreaking attacks without requiring costly model fine-tuning.
The paper proposes Iterative Quantum Feature Maps (IQFMs), a hybrid quantum-classical framework that constructs deep architectures by iteratively connecting shallow, noise-resilient quantum feature maps with classically computed weights to mitigate hardware limitations and achieve performance comparable to classical neural networks without optimizing variational quantum parameters.
SPARC introduces a novel framework that unifies concept representations across diverse AI architectures and modalities by enforcing global sparsity and cross-reconstruction loss, thereby creating a shared latent space that enables direct cross-model interpretability and applications like text-guided localization without manual alignment.
