From Symbolic Perception to Logical Deduction: A Framework for Guiding Language Models in Geometric Reasoning

arXiv:2609.10335v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Plane geometry remains a significant challenge in AI, requiring the integration of visual perception and mathematical reasoning. While Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) naturally handle visuo-linguistic inputs, they are often computationally intensive and opaque. We demonstrate that a pure Large Language Model (LLM), when equipped with specialized modules, can rival state-of-the-art LMMs on complex geometry problems. Our framework integrates a Geometric Vision Parser, which translates diagrams into symbolic form, with a Symbolic Solver that performs formal deductions, thereby mitigating hallucinations and promoting interpretable reasoning. To enable rigorous evaluation, we curate a benchmark of challenging problems from the 2025 Chinese Zhongkao examinations, ensuring data novelty and testing deeper deductive skills. Experiments demonstrate that our approach achieves performance comparable to Gemini 2.5 Pro while delivering clearer, human-like solutions.

Break the Brake, Not the Wheel: Untargeted Jailbreak via Entropy Maximization

arXiv:2605.10764v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent studies show that gradient-based universal image jailbreaks on vision-language models (VLMs) exhibit little or no cross-model transferability, casting doubt on the feasibility of transferable multimodal jailbreaks. We revisit this conclusion under a strictly untargeted threat model without enforcing a fixed prefix or response pattern. Our preliminary experiment reveals that refusal behavior concentrates at high-entropy tokens during autoregressive decoding, and non-refusal tokens already carry substantial probability mass among the top-ranked candidates before attack. Motivated by this finding, we propose Untargeted Jailbreak via Entropy Maximization(UJEM)-KL, a lightweight attack that maximizes entropy at these decision tokens to flip refusal outcomes, while stabilizing the remaining low-entropy positions to preserve output quality. Across three VLMs and two safety benchmarks, UJEM-KL achieves competitive white-box attack success rates and consistently improves transferability, while remaining effective under representative defenses. Our experimental results indicate that the limited transferability primarily stems from overly constrained optimization objectives.

A Comprehensive Graph Pooling Benchmark: Effectiveness, Robustness and Generalizability

arXiv:2406.09031v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Graph pooling has gained attention for its ability to obtain effective node and graph representations for various downstream tasks. Despite the recent surge in graph pooling approaches, there is a lack of standardized experimental settings and fair benchmarks to evaluate their performance. To address this issue, we have constructed a comprehensive benchmark that includes 17 graph pooling methods and 28 different graph datasets. This benchmark systematically assesses the performance of graph pooling methods in three dimensions, i.e., effectiveness, robustness, and generalizability. We first evaluate the performance of these graph pooling approaches across different tasks including graph classification, graph regression and node classification. Then, we investigate their performance under potential noise attacks and out-of-distribution shifts in real-world scenarios. We also involve detailed efficiency analysis, backbone analysis, parameter analysis and visualization to provide more evidence. Extensive experiments validate the strong capability and applicability of graph pooling approaches in various scenarios, which can provide valuable insights and guidance for deep geometric learning research. The source code of our benchmark is available at https://github.com/goose315/Graph_Pooling_Benchmark.
