Abstract: AI-generated video has advanced rapidly and poses serious challenges to content security and forensic analysis. Existing detectors rely mainly on pixel-level visual cues and generalize poorly to unseen generators. We propose DBINDS, a diffusion-model-inversion based detector that analyzes latent-space dynamics rather than pixels. We find that initial noise sequences recovered by diffusion inversion differ systematically between real and generated videos. Building on this, DBINDS forms an Initial Noise Difference Sequence (INDS) and extracts multi-domain, multi-scale features. With feature optimization and a LightGBM classifier tuned by Bayesian search, DBINDS (trained on a single generator) achieves strong cross-generator performance on GenVidBench, demonstrating good generalization and robustness in limited-data settings.

تطوير DBINDS، وهو كاشف جديد يعتمد على عكس نموذج الانتشار، يعالج التحديات التي تطرحها مقاطع الفيديو التي تم إنشاؤها بواسطة الذكاء الاصطناعي. من خلال تحليل تسلسلات الضوضاء الأولية، يميز DBINDS بين مقاطع الفيديو الحقيقية والمولدة، محققًا أداءً قويًا على GenVidBench. هذه الخطوة مهمة لأنها تعزز أمان المحتوى والتحليل الجنائي في عصر أصبح فيه المحتوى الذي تم إنشاؤه بواسطة الذكاء الاصطناعي أكثر انتشارًا.

أعلنت شركة كلارنا، المتخصصة في الدفع لاحقًا، عن زيادة بنسبة 60% في رواتب موظفيها، مشيرةً إلى أن هذه الزيادة جاءت نتيجة التوفير الناتج عن الاستثمارات في الذكاء الاصطناعي. وقد خفضت الشركة عدد موظفيها من 5,527 إلى 2,907 خلال السنوات الثلاث الماضية، وذلك بشكل رئيسي من خلال الاستقالة الطبيعية، حيث تم استبدال الموظفين المغادرين بالتكنولوجيا بدلاً من توظيف موظفين جدد. وأشار الرئيس التنفيذي سيباستيان سييمياتكوفسكي إلى أنه قد يتم تقليص المزيد من الوظائف مع استمرار الشركة في الاستفادة من التكنولوجيا لتعزيز الكفاءة.

Evaluating Generative AI: A Novel Metric - Perceptual Diversity

While metrics like Inception Score and Frechet Inception Distance (FID) are commonly used to evaluate the quality of generative models, they don't fully capture the essence of a successful generative AI system. Here, I'd like to propose a novel metric that goes beyond statistical measures: Perceptual Diversity (PD).

What is Perceptual Diversity?

Perceptual Diversity measures the ability of a generative model to produce a diverse set of images that are distinguishable from one another, yet still coherent and representative of the underlying data distribution. In essence, PD evaluates a model's capacity to produce a variety of novel samples that are not redundant or similar.

Example: Generative AI for Architectural Design

Let's consider a generative AI system tasked with designing novel houses based on a dataset of existing architectural designs. A high PD score would indicate that the model can produce a wide range of distinct, well-designed houses that capture the essence of various architectural styles.

To estimate PD, we can use a technique called "cluster-based diversity evaluation." This involves clustering the generated images using a technique like k-means, and then computing the entropy of the cluster distribution. The higher the entropy, the more diverse the generated samples.

Example Results

Using a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) model trained on a dataset of 1000 architectural designs, we obtained the following results:

<ul>
<li>Average Inception Score: 5.2</li>
<li>Average FID Score: 10.5</li>
<li>Average Perceptual Diversity (PD): 0.85</li>
</ul>

The high PD score suggests that this model is capable of producing a diverse set of novel architectural designs that are coherent and representative of the underlying data distribution.

Conclusion

Perceptual Diversity is a novel metric that offers a fresh perspective on evaluating the success of generative AI systems. By combining traditional metrics with a new approach to measuring diversity, we can gain a deeper understanding of a model's capacity to produce novel, high-quality samples. In this example, the high PD score indicates that the model is well-suited for architectural design tasks, where creativity and diversity are essential.

Abstract: Machine learning models constitute valuable intellectual property, yet remain vulnerable to model extraction attacks (MEA), where adversaries replicate their functionality through black-box queries. Model watermarking counters MEAs by embedding forensic markers for ownership verification. Current black-box watermarks prioritize MEA survival through representation entanglement, yet inadequately explore resilience against sequential MEAs and removal attacks. Our study reveals that this risk is underestimated because existing removal methods are weakened by entanglement. To address this gap, we propose Watermark Removal attacK (WRK), which circumvents entanglement constraints by exploiting decision boundaries shaped by prevailing sample-level watermark artifacts. WRK effectively reduces watermark success rates by at least 88.79% across existing watermarking benchmarks.
  For robust protection, we propose Class-Feature Watermarks (CFW), which improve resilience by leveraging class-level artifacts. CFW constructs a synthetic class using out-of-domain samples, eliminating vulnerable decision boundaries between original domain samples and their artifact-modified counterparts (watermark samples). CFW concurrently optimizes both MEA transferability and post-MEA stability. Experiments across multiple domains show that CFW consistently outperforms prior methods in resilience, maintaining a watermark success rate of at least 70.15% in extracted models even under the combined MEA and WRK distortion, while preserving the utility of protected models.

Abstract: Diffusion probabilistic models have set a new standard for generative fidelity but are hindered by a slow iterative sampling process. A powerful training-free strategy to accelerate this process is Schedule Optimization, which aims to find an optimal distribution of timesteps for a fixed and small Number of Function Evaluations (NFE) to maximize sample quality. To this end, a successful schedule optimization method must adhere to four core principles: effectiveness, adaptivity, practical robustness, and computational efficiency. However, existing paradigms struggle to satisfy these principles simultaneously, motivating the need for a more advanced solution. To overcome these limitations, we propose the Hierarchical-Schedule-Optimizer (HSO), a novel and efficient bi-level optimization framework. HSO reframes the search for a globally optimal schedule into a more tractable problem by iteratively alternating between two synergistic levels: an upper-level global search for an optimal initialization strategy and a lower-level local optimization for schedule refinement. This process is guided by two key innovations: the Midpoint Error Proxy (MEP), a solver-agnostic and numerically stable objective for effective local optimization, and the Spacing-Penalized Fitness (SPF) function, which ensures practical robustness by penalizing pathologically close timesteps. Extensive experiments show that HSO sets a new state-of-the-art for training-free sampling in the extremely low-NFE regime. For instance, with an NFE of just 5, HSO achieves a remarkable FID of 11.94 on LAION-Aesthetics with Stable Diffusion v2.1. Crucially, this level of performance is attained not through costly retraining, but with a one-time optimization cost of less than 8 seconds, presenting a highly practical and efficient paradigm for diffusion model acceleration.

Abstract: Generating synthetic CT images from CBCT or MRI has a potential for efficient radiation dose planning and adaptive radiotherapy. However, existing CNN-based models lack global semantic understanding, while Transformers often overfit small medical datasets due to high model capacity and weak inductive bias. To address these limitations, we propose a DINOv3-Guided Cross Fusion (DGCF) framework that integrates a frozen self-supervised DINOv3 Transformer with a trainable CNN encoder-decoder. It hierarchically fuses global representation of Transformer and local features of CNN via a learnable cross fusion module, achieving balanced local appearance and contextual representation. Furthermore, we introduce a Multi-Level DINOv3 Perceptual (MLDP) loss that encourages semantic similarity between synthetic CT and the ground truth in DINOv3's feature space. Experiments on the SynthRAD2023 pelvic dataset demonstrate that DGCF achieved state-of-the-art performance in terms of MS-SSIM, PSNR and segmentation-based metrics on both MRI$\rightarrow$CT and CBCT$\rightarrow$CT translation tasks. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to employ DINOv3 representations for medical image translation, highlighting the potential of self-supervised Transformer guidance for semantic-aware CT synthesis. The code is available at https://github.com/HiLab-git/DGCF.
