Pay Less Attention to Function Words for Free Robustness of Vision-Language Models

ICLR 2026poster

To address the trade-off between robustness and performance for robust VLM, we observe that function words could incur vulnerability of VLMs against cross-modal adversarial attacks, and propose Function-word De-Attention (FDA) accordingly to mitigate the impact of function words. Similar to differen…

Collapse-Aware Triplet Decoupling for Adversarially Robust Image Retrieval

ICML 2024poster

Adversarial training has achieved substantial performance in defending image retrieval against adversarial examples. However, existing studies in deep metric learning (DML) still suffer from two major limitations: *weak adversary* and *model collapse*. In this paper, we address these two limitations…
