Hierarchical Safety Realignment: Lightweight Restoration of Safety in Pruned Large Vision-Language Models \ Yue Li^*, Xin Yi^*, Dongsheng Shi, Gerard de Melo, Xiaoling Wang, Linlin Wang^†.

Arxiv | Project | ACL Anthology | Poster

• The current pruning methods will lead to a significant degradation of the model’s safety at a higher sparsity.
• The HSR (Hierarchical Safety Realignment) method we proposed can achieve safety realignment for the pruned model by restoring only a very small number of neurons. HSR is effective for both LLM and LVLM.

AGMark: Attention-Guided Dynamic Watermarking for Large Vision-Language Models \ Yue Li^*, Xin Yi^*, Dongsheng Shi, Yongyi Cui, Gerard de Melo, Linlin Wang^†.

Arxiv | Project

• We propose AGmark, a watermarking method for LVLMs that follows the red–green token partitioning paradigm.
• At each generation step, AGmark identifies candidate token weights and determines the protected token set size, effectively mitigating the trade-off between text quality and watermark detectability.
