Inducing Overthink: Hierarchical Genetic Algorithm-based DoS Attack on Black-Box Large Language Reasoning Models

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) are increasingly integrated into systems requiring reliable multi-step inference, yet this growing dependence exposes new vulnerabilities related to computational availability. In particular, LRMs exhibit a tendency to "overthink", producing excessively long and redundant reasoning traces, when confronted with incomplete or logically inconsistent inputs. This behavior significantly increases inference latency and energy consumption, forming a potential vector for denial-of-service (DoS) style resource exhaustion. In this work, we investigate this attack surface and propose an automated black-box framework that induces overthinking in LRMs by systematically perturbing the logical structure of input problems. Our method employs a hierarchical genetic algorithm (HGA) operating on structured problem decompositions, and optimizes a composite fitness function designed to maximize both response length and reflective overthinking markers. Across four state-of-the-art reasoning models, the proposed method substantially amplifies output length, achieving up to a 26.1x increase on the MATH benchmark and consistently outperforming benign and manually crafted missing-premise baselines. We further demonstrate strong transferability, showing that adversarial inputs evolved using a small proxy model retain high effectiveness against large commercial LRMs. These findings highlight overthinking as a shared and exploitable vulnerability in modern reasoning systems, underscoring the need for more robust defenses.

Adversarial Learning Based Structural Brain-network Generative Model for Analyzing Mild Cognitive Impairment

Mild cognitive impairment(MCI) is a precursor of Alzheimer's disease(AD), and the detection of MCI is of great clinical significance. Analyzing the structural brain networks of patients is vital for the recognition of MCI. However, the current studies on structural brain networks are totally dependent on specific toolboxes, which is time-consuming and subjective. Few tools can obtain the structural brain networks from brain diffusion tensor images. In this work, an adversarial learning-based structural brain-network generative model(SBGM) is proposed to directly learn the structural connections from brain diffusion tensor images. By analyzing the differences in structural brain networks across subjects, we found that the structural brain networks of subjects showed a consistent trend from elderly normal controls(NC) to early mild cognitive impairment(EMCI) to late mild cognitive impairment(LMCI): structural connectivity progressed in a progressively weaker direction as the condition worsened. In addition, our proposed model tri-classifies EMCI, LMCI, and NC subjects, achieving a classification accuracy of 83.33\% on the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative(ADNI) database.

Cross-Modal Transformer GAN: A Brain Structure-Function Deep Fusing Framework for Alzheimer's Disease

Cross-modal fusion of different types of neuroimaging data has shown great promise for predicting the progression of Alzheimer's Disease(AD). However, most existing methods applied in neuroimaging can not efficiently fuse the functional and structural information from multi-modal neuroimages. In this work, a novel cross-modal transformer generative adversarial network(CT-GAN) is proposed to fuse functional information contained in resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) and structural information contained in Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI). The developed bi-attention mechanism can match functional information to structural information efficiently and maximize the capability of extracting complementary information from rs-fMRI and DTI. By capturing the deep complementary information between structural features and functional features, the proposed CT-GAN can detect the AD-related brain connectivity, which could be used as a bio-marker of AD. Experimental results show that the proposed model can not only improve classification performance but also detect the AD-related brain connectivity effectively.

Dynamic Community Detection via Adversarial Temporal Graph Representation Learning

Dynamic community detection has been prospered as a powerful tool for quantifying changes in dynamic brain network connectivity patterns by identifying strongly connected sets of nodes. However, as the network science problems and network data to be processed become gradually more sophisticated, it awaits a better method to efficiently learn low dimensional representation from dynamic network data and reveal its latent function that changes over time in the brain network. In this work, an adversarial temporal graph representation learning (ATGRL) framework is proposed to detect dynamic communities from a small sample of brain network data. It adopts a novel temporal graph attention network as an encoder to capture more efficient spatio-temporal features by attention mechanism in both spatial and temporal dimensions. In addition, the framework employs adversarial training to guide the learning of temporal graph representation and optimize the measurable modularity loss to maximize the modularity of community. Experiments on the real-world brain networks datasets are demonstrated to show the effectiveness of this new method.

Feature-selected Graph Spatial Attention Network for Addictive Brain-Networks Identification

Functional alterations in the relevant neural circuits occur from drug addiction over a certain period. And these significant alterations are also revealed by analyzing fMRI. However, because of fMRI's high dimensionality and poor signal-to-noise ratio, it is challenging to encode efficient and robust brain regional embeddings for both graph-level identification and region-level biomarkers detection tasks between nicotine addiction (NA) and healthy control (HC) groups. In this work, we represent the fMRI of the rat brain as a graph with biological attributes and propose a novel feature-selected graph spatial attention network(FGSAN) to extract the biomarkers of addiction and identify from these brain networks. Specially, a graph spatial attention encoder is employed to capture the features of spatiotemporal brain networks with spatial information. The method simultaneously adopts a Bayesian feature selection strategy to optimize the model and improve classification task by constraining features. Experiments on an addiction-related neural imaging dataset show that the proposed model can obtain superior performance and detect interpretable biomarkers associated with addiction-relevant neural circuits.

Bidirectional Mapping Generative Adversarial Networks for Brain MR to PET Synthesis

Fusing multi-modality medical images, such as MR and PET, can provide various anatomical or functional information about human body. But PET data is always unavailable due to different reasons such as cost, radiation, or other limitations. In this paper, we propose a 3D end-to-end synthesis network, called Bidirectional Mapping Generative Adversarial Networks (BMGAN), where image contexts and latent vector are effectively used and jointly optimized for brain MR-to-PET synthesis. Concretely, a bidirectional mapping mechanism is designed to embed the semantic information of PET images into the high dimensional latent space. And the 3D DenseU-Net generator architecture and the extensive objective functions are further utilized to improve the visual quality of synthetic results. The most appealing part is that the proposed method can synthesize the perceptually realistic PET images while preserving the diverse brain structures of different subjects. Experimental results demonstrate that the performance of the proposed method outperforms other competitive cross-modality synthesis methods in terms of quantitative measures, qualitative displays, and classification evaluation.

Tensorizing GAN with High-Order Pooling for Alzheimer's Disease Assessment

It is of great significance to apply deep learning for the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). In this work, a novel tensorizing GAN with high-order pooling is proposed to assess Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and AD. By tensorizing a three-player cooperative game based framework, the proposed model can benefit from the structural information of the brain. By incorporating the high-order pooling scheme into the classifier, the proposed model can make full use of the second-order statistics of the holistic Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images. To the best of our knowledge, the proposed Tensor-train, High-pooling and Semi-supervised learning based GAN (THS-GAN) is the first work to deal with classification on MRI images for AD diagnosis. Extensive experimental results on Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) dataset are reported to demonstrate that the proposed THS-GAN achieves superior performance compared with existing methods, and to show that both tensor-train and high-order pooling can enhance classification performance. The visualization of generated samples also shows that the proposed model can generate plausible samples for semi-supervised learning purpose.
