Adapting step-distilled text-to-image (T2I) models through post-training incurs additional computational costs and affects native few-step generation behavior. This motivates a complementary route beyond style-specific adaptation: drawing on the visual knowledge already encoded in step-distilled T2I models to elicit st …

Text-to-image (T2I) models have substantially improved in language understanding, in-image text rendering, and visual composition, while their safety mechanisms do not always keep pace with these capabilities. This creates a cross-modal attack surface in which harmful semantics can remain inconspicuous in a serialized …

Autonomous agents have made rapid progress in general-purpose computer use, but reliable automation of professional industrial engineering remains out of reach, as engineering workflows demand reasoning over geometric and physical constraints and dependencies preserved across software and design stages. We present Engi …

Text-to-image diffusion models enable data-efficient "mimicry" attacks, wherein adversaries fine-tune the model on a handful of public photos to synthesize convincing forgeries of a target individual. A common countermeasure is to embed imperceptible, low-energy watermarks, yet recent studies show these signatures are …

Achieving robust cross-embodiment generalization in imitation learning demands overcoming a critical representation flaw that inextricably entangles task semantics with hardware-specific visual geometry. We propose an interaction-centric framework that leverages the shared structure of two-finger grippers via a paramet …

Multimodal training relies on image-text corpora collected from external sources, creating opportunities for attackers to poison the data. Stealthy attacks can preserve plausible image-text pairs while concealing the differences used by detectors, so apparently clean data can still redirect the trained model. We theref …

Scientific code repositories encode decades of human knowledge in executable models, methods, and tools. Yet fragmented toolchains, implicit domain conventions, and specialized correctness criteria make this knowledge difficult to convert into reliable learning experience-a challenge we call the scientific experience b …
