Previous work has shown that 3D point cloud classifiers can be vulnerable to adversarial examples. However, most of the existing methods are aimed at white-box attacks, where the parameters and other information of the classifiers are known in the attack, which is unrealistic for real-world applications. In order to improve the attack performance of the black-box classifiers, the research community generally uses the transfer-based black-box attack. However, the transferability of current 3D attacks is still relatively low. To this end, this paper proposes Scale and Shear (SS) Attack to generate 3D adversarial examples with strong transferability. Specifically, we randomly scale or shear the input point cloud, so that the attack will not overfit the white-box model, thereby improving the transferability of the attack. Extensive experiments show that the SS attack proposed in this paper can be seamlessly combined with the existing state-of-the-art (SOTA) 3D point cloud attack methods to form more powerful attack methods, and the SS attack improves the transferability over 3.6 times compare to the baseline. Moreover, while substantially outperforming the baseline methods, the SS attack achieves SOTA transferability under various defenses.

Realizing endogenous narrative evolution in LLM-based multi-agent systems is hindered by the inherent stochasticity of generative emergence. In particular, long-horizon simulations suffer from social memory stacking, where conflicting relational states accumulate without resolution, and narrative-spatial dissonance, where spatial logic detaches from the evolving plot. To bridge this gap, we propose EvoSpark, a framework specifically designed to sustain logically coherent long-horizon narratives within Endogenous Interactive Agent Societies. To ensure consistency, the Stratified Narrative Memory employs a Role Socio-Evolutionary Base as living cognition, dynamically metabolizing experiences to resolve historical conflicts. Complementarily, Generative Mise-en-Scène mechanism enforces Role-Location-Plot alignment, synchronizing character presence with the narrative flow. Underpinning these is the Unified Narrative Operation Engine, which integrates an Emergent Character Grounding Protocol to transform stochastic sparking into persistent characters. This engine establishes a substrate that expands a minimal premise into an open-ended, evolving story world. Experiments demonstrate that EvoSpark significantly outperforms baselines across diverse paradigms, enabling the sustained generation of expressive and coherent narrative experiences.

Robust environment perception is critical for autonomous cars, and adversarial defenses are the most effective and widely studied ways to improve the robustness of environment perception. However, all of previous defense methods decrease the natural accuracy, and the nature of the DNNs itself has been overlooked. To this end, in this paper, we propose a novel adversarial defense for 3D point cloud classifier that makes full use of the nature of the DNNs. Due to the disorder of point cloud, all point cloud classifiers have the property of permutation invariant to the input point cloud. Based on this nature, we design invariant transformations defense (IT-Defense). We show that, even after accounting for obfuscated gradients, our IT-Defense is a resilient defense against state-of-the-art (SOTA) 3D attacks. Moreover, IT-Defense do not hurt clean accuracy compared to previous SOTA 3D defenses. Our code is available at: {\footnotesize{\url{https://github.com/cuge1995/IT-Defense}}}.
