Bit-flip attacks on vision-language-action models: vulnerability depends on action-decoding design

Researchers report the first bit-flip attack against a vision-language-action model, showing that Rowhammer-style faults can corrupt INT8 weights in deployed quantized systems. Using only a few gradient-selected bit flips, they drive the policy's closed-loop success rate down to near zero. The paper finds that a VLA model's action-decoding architecture largely determines how exposed it is to such faults.

Divergence-based approach proposed to evaluate fidelity loss in quantized LLMs

A new arXiv paper argues that zero-shot task accuracy is an inadequate yardstick for quantized large language models, because it relies only on argmax predictions and hides changes in output distributions. The authors introduce a divergence-based method for measuring how much behavioral fidelity is lost when models undergo aggressive post-training compression for memory-constrained edge devices.

DiffLUT-Net Trains FPGA Lookup-Table Networks End-to-End with Learnable Connectivity

Researchers have introduced DiffLUT-Net, a framework that trains neural networks made of FPGA lookup tables directly through differentiable methods rather than converting pretrained quantized models. The approach also learns the connectivity structure of the LUT network, aiming to make hardware-efficient inference on FPGAs more effective. The work is available as a paper on arXiv.
