  • StealthRank: LLM Ranking Manipulation via Stealthy Prompt Optimization

    StealthRank: LLM Ranking Manipulation via Stealthy Prompt Optimization arXiv:2504.05804v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The integration of large language models (LLMs) into information retrieval systems introduces new attack surfaces, particularly for adversarial ranking manipulations. We present StealthRank, a novel adversarial ranking attack that manipulates LLM-driven product recommendation systems while maintaining textual fluency and stealth. Unlike existing…

  • Isometry pursuit

    Isometry pursuit arXiv:2411.18502v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Isometry pursuit is a convex algorithm for identifying orthonormal column-submatrices of wide matrices. It consists of a novel normalization method followed by multitask basis pursuit. Applied to Jacobians of putative coordinate functions, it helps identity isometric embeddings from within interpretable dictionaries. We provide theoretical and experimental results justifying…
