Universal Adversarial Perturbations are image-agnostic and model-independent noise that when added with any image can mislead the trained Deep Convolutional Neural Networks into the wrong prediction. Since these Universal Adversarial…

Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) excel in vision-language tasks but remain vulnerable to visual adversarial perturbations that can induce hallucinations, manipulate responses, or bypass safety mechanisms. Existing methods seek to…
The conventional targeted adversarial attacks add a small perturbation to an image to make neural network models estimate the image as a predefined target class, even if it is not the correct target class. Recently, for visual-language…
