Hey, That's My Data! Token-Only Dataset Inference in Large Language Models

Chen Xiong, Zihao Wang, Rui Zhu et al.

Large Language Models (LLMs) rely on massive training datasets, often including proprietary data, which raises concerns about unauthorized usage and copyright infringement. Existing dataset inference methods typically require access to log probabilities or other internal signals, but many modern LLMs restrict such access, motivating token-only inference approaches. We propose CatShift, a token-only dataset inference framework based on catastrophic forgetting, where models overwrite prior knowledge when trained on new data. Fine-tuning an LLM on a subset of its training data induces larger output shifts than fine-tuning on unseen data. CatShift compares these shifts against those from a known non-member validation set to infer whether a dataset was included in training. Experiments on both open-source and API-based LLMs show that CatShift remains effective without logit access, enabling practical protection of proprietary datasets.

Elevating Legal LLM Responses: Harnessing Trainable Logical Structures and Semantic Knowledge with Legal Reasoning

Rujing Yao, Yang Wu, Chenghao Wang et al.

Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved impressive results across numerous domains, yet they experience notable deficiencies in legal question-answering tasks. LLMs often generate generalized responses that lack the logical specificity required for expert legal advice and are prone to hallucination, providing answers that appear correct but are unreliable. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) techniques offer partial solutions to address this challenge, but existing approaches typically focus only on semantic similarity, neglecting the logical structure essential to legal reasoning. In this paper, we propose the Logical-Semantic Integration Model (LSIM), a novel supervised framework that bridges semantic and logical coherence. LSIM comprises three components: reinforcement learning predicts a structured fact-rule chain for each question, a trainable Deep Structured Semantic Model (DSSM) retrieves the most relevant candidate questions by integrating semantic and logical features, and in-context learning generates the final answer using the retrieved content. Our experiments on a real-world legal QA dataset-validated through both automated metrics and human evaluation-demonstrate that LSIM significantly enhances accuracy and reliability compared to existing methods.

ADEPT: An Entropy-Driven Dual-Strategy Agent for Interactive Video Retrieval

Ke Chen, Shengyuan Han, Yongfeng Huang et al.

This research aims to solve the challenge of video retrieval from massive datasets, caused by ambiguous user queries. Prevailing single-round retrieval paradigms face a performance bottleneck, as they lack effective feedback mechanisms to handle complex search intentions. The root cause is the "Intent-Query Gap", where users' intent cannot be captured by a simple text query. To solve this, we propose the ADEPT framework: a training-free agent that pioneers an entropy-driven decision engine to efficiently guide dialogue by dynamically selecting between ASK and REFINE strategies. Experiments on two challenging datasets demonstrate that ADEPT significantly outperforms all non-interactive, heuristic, and Video-LLM baselines. The core contribution of this work is an efficient and interpretable entropy-driven interactive strategy that sets a new performance benchmark for the field of interactive video retrieval.
