Adversarial attacks pose a challenge to the reliability of deep learning models, motivating effective detection methods. Existing techniques often rely on attack-specific assumptions, access to adversarial samples, or knowledge of the underlying classifier (white-box). We propose $A^4D$ Attack- and Architecture-Agnostic Adversarial Detector, a completely black-box, zero-shot adversarial attack detection framework that utilizes prompt-based similarity scores derived from CLIP. To the best of our knowledge this is the first attempt to utilize CLIP for such a task. The method is based on two key observations: (i) CLIP is sensitive even to small imperceptible non-semantic perturbations; (ii) The shift in CLIP embedding space is not arbitrary and can be used as a robust attack indicator. Experiments across multiple attacks, datasets and classifiers validate that $A^4D$ achieves SOTA detection results in the attack-agnostic and classifier-agnostic setting.
Zero-shot anomaly detection (ZSAD) aims to detect and localize anomalies in unseen categories without access to target-specific training data. Although recent CLIP-based methods have demonstrated promising generalization through vision-language alignment, they remain limited in c…
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are emerging as core reasoning modules for embodied agents, yet it remains unclear how well general-purpose models can solve long-horizon embodied tasks from a single high-level instruction. We introduce MissionBench, a benchmark for missi…
Adversarial attacks against large vision-language models (LVLMs) serve as an effective means of assessing their robustness in cross-modal semantic understanding. Existing studies mainly focus on corrupting visual inputs to induce predefined erroneous responses in general vision-l…
The zero-shot capabilities of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are pushing salient object detection (SOD) beyond task-specific supervision. To disentangle MLLMs beyond conventional mask-based evaluation, we decompose SOD into localization and segmentation, and re-engineer…
Accurate forest inventory and large-scale mapping are essential for ecosystem monitoring and sustainable forest management. Multiple low-cost edge platforms enable efficient large-area data acquisition, but merging independently constructed local maps in GNSS-denied understory en…
