Safety alignment instills in Large Language Models (LLMs) a critical capacity to refuse malicious requests. Prior works have modeled this refusal mechanism as a single linear direction in the activation space. We posit that this is an oversimplification that conflates two functionally distinct neur
The safety alignment of Large Language Models (LLMs) remains vulnerable to Harmful Fine-tuning (HFT). While existing defenses impose constraints on parameters, gradients, or internal representations, we observe that they can be effectively circumvented under persistent HFT. Our analysis traces this …
Recent advancements in Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology have been remarkable, enabling current models to clone arbitrary unseen speakers and synthesize high-quality, natural-sounding speech. However, corresponding evaluation techniques appear to be lagging: existing Mean Opinion Score (MOS) estimatio
Large language models (LLMs) are essential tools that users employ across various scenarios, so evaluating their performance and guiding users in selecting the suitable service is important. Although many benchmarks exist, they mainly focus on specific predefined model abilities, such as world knowl…
