Inside Out: Improving Large Model Safety

School of Computing and Information Systems Large Language Models (LLMs) and Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) demonstrate remarkable capabilities across diverse applications, yet they remain vulnerable to adversarial attacks through carefully crafted prompts and harmful visual inputs that circumvent safety mechanisms. Despite considerable efforts in reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) and supervised fine-tuning, existing safeguards prove inadequate because these models operate as black-boxes without explanations for their decisions, making security vulnerabilities difficult to identify and eliminate. Addressing these challenges fundamentally requires understanding the inner safety mechanisms of these models to develop targeted mitigation strategies that can effectively defend against attacks. This dissertation presents four interconnected contributions to improve LLM and MLLM security through mechanistic understanding. We propose CASPER, a causality analysis framework operating at token, layer, and neuron levels that reveals how… Subtitle: PhD Dissertation Defense by ZHAO Wei. Contact: scisseminars@smu.edu.sg.

Certifying AI with Robustness and Fairness

School of Computing and Information Systems Machine learning is widely used in real-world applications, but its deployment raises serious safety concerns, including limited robustness and fairness. These shortcomings pose significant ethical and practical risks, especially in safety-critical systems. Although many empirical techniques aim to address these issues, they often fail under adaptive attacks, underscoring the need for methods with formal guarantees. Existing certified approaches, however, typically suffer from substantial utility loss. Moreover, the mechanisms underlying the trade-off between safety guarantees and accuracy are not well understood, limiting progress in this area. This dissertation investigates certified AI safety, with a focus on robustness and fairness. The first work leverages Bayes error to analyze robustness, studying the fundamental limits of certified robust accuracy under data distribution uncertainty. It derives an upper bound based on class-conditional distributions and their decision boundaries, with empirical resul… Subtitle: PhD Dissertation Defense by ZHANG Ruihan.

CCLA Seminar: Independent Directors and the Rise of Specialist Directors - What Singapore Practitioners Need to Know

Centre for Cross Border Commercial Law in Asia Corporate governance in Singapore and across Asia is evolving. Independent directors remain central to board design, yet boards are increasingly expected to add directors with targeted expertise – for example in ESG, cybersecurity, climate, or diversity.

SMU CCLA - NUS CIL Distinguished Lecture: Complementarity between Hamburg and The Hague: The Two Advisory Opinions on Climate Change by Judge Tomas Heidar

Centre for Cross Border Commercial Law in Asia Join Singapore Management University's Centre for Commercial Law in Asia and the National University of Singapore's Centre for International Law for a Distinguished Lecture delivered by Judge Tomas Heidar President of the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS). The lecture will be on the subject of two recent advisory opinions delivered by ITLOS and the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on the international obligations of states regarding climate change. One of the most distinguished features of the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea is its compulsory dispute settlement mechanism. It provides, inter alia, for the choice of four different means or forums, three of which have been used so far, namely ITLOS, the ICJ and Annex VII arbitration. Obviously, the existence of multiple judicial bodies entails the risk of inconsistent jurisprudence, or judicial fragmentation, but the system has also the potential to be complementary. This lecture will address potential examples of i… Fee(s): Complimentary. Contact: ccla@smu.edu.sg.

STARI Lunchtime Seminar - What Does ‘Source’ Really Mean? Re-Examining Source Rules in Double Tax Conventions

Centre for Cross Border Commercial Law in Asia Most jurisdictions tax nonresidents only on their domestically sourced income. However, determining where income is sourced has been a longstanding headache for tax students, academics, policymakers, and industry stakeholders — though lawyers may view it as a bonanza. As Professor Avi-Yonah observed, source rules “are a wonderful thing for lawyers and something that causes economists to despair,” not least because “most tax economists today believe that income does not have a single source that can be pinpointed” (Avi-Yonah, 2007). Professor Arnold similarly notes that “the concept of source is poorly developed in domestic tax legislation and tax treaties” (Arnold, 2023). Does “source” refer to the place where value is created, where goods or services are consumed, or where the outbound payment is made? A relatively common perception is that active income is sourced in the country where contributions to income generation occur, whereas passive income is sourced in the payor’s country. However, with the rapid… Fee(s): Complimentary (Successful registrant will receive an email for confirmation of your registration). Contact: ccla@smu.edu.sg.
