Large reasoning models (LRMs) incur high inference costs, often mitigated by efficiency techniques like quantization and pruning. However, the impact of these techniques on model adversarial robustness remains largely unexplored. This study provides the first comprehensive…

The rapid development of video generative models (VGMs) has enabled the generation of highly realistic synthetic videos, raising concerns about the intellectual property rights (IPR) of these models. In particular, two closely related forensic tasks remain largely unaddressed:…

Sink-aware deployment may identify important first-token attention heads before a model is quantized, then reuse that map at the edge. We test when this shortcut is safe for 4-bit NF4 weight-only post-training quantization (PTQ). Our Sink Topology Consistency (STC) metrics…

Maintenance work orders must often be processed offline on embedded hardware, yet downstream software requires predictable structured output. We present ARID (Aviation-inspired Routing for Industrial Deployment), which extracts component, failure mode, symptom, and maintenance…
