DualGeo: A Dual-View Framework for Worldwide Image Geo-localization

Worldwide image geo-localization aims to infer the geographic location of an image captured anywhere on Earth, spanning street, city, regional, national, and continental scales. Existing methods rely on visual features that are sensitive to environmental variations (e.g., lighting, season, and weather) and lack effective post-processing to filter outlier candidates, limiting localization accuracy. To address these limitations, we propose DualGeo, a two-stage framework for worldwide image geo-localization. First, it establishes a geo-representational foundation by fusing image and semantic segmentation features via bidirectional cross-attention. The fused features are then aligned with GPS coordinates through dual-view contrastive learning to build a global retrieval database. Second, it performs geo-cognitive refinement by re-ranking retrieved candidates using geographic clustering. It then feeds them into large multimodal models (LMMs) for final coordinate prediction. Experiments on IM2GPS, IM2GPS3k, and YFCC4k show that DualGeo outperforms state-of-the-art methods, improving street-level (<1 km) and city-level (<25 km) localization accuracy by 3.6%-16.58% and 1.29%-8.77%, respectively.

Self-recoverable Adversarial Examples: A New Effective Protection Mechanism in Social Networks

Malicious intelligent algorithms greatly threaten the security of social users&#39; privacy by detecting and analyzing the uploaded photos to social network platforms. The destruction to DNNs brought by the adversarial attack sparks the potential that adversarial examples serve as a new protection mechanism for privacy security in social networks. However, the existing adversarial example does not have recoverability for serving as an effective protection mechanism. To address this issue, we propose a recoverable generative adversarial network to generate self-recoverable adversarial examples. By modeling the adversarial attack and recovery as a united task, our method can minimize the error of the recovered examples while maximizing the attack ability, resulting in better recoverability of adversarial examples. To further boost the recoverability of these examples, we exploit a dimension reducer to optimize the distribution of adversarial perturbation. The experimental results prove that the adversarial examples generated by the proposed method present superior recoverability, attack ability, and robustness on different datasets and network architectures, which ensure its effectiveness as a protection mechanism in social networks.

Shielding Collaborative Learning: Mitigating Poisoning Attacks through Client-Side Detection

Collaborative learning allows multiple clients to train a joint model without sharing their data with each other. Each client performs training locally and then submits the model updates to a central server for aggregation. Since the server has no visibility into the process of generating the updates, collaborative learning is vulnerable to poisoning attacks where a malicious client can generate a poisoned update to introduce backdoor functionality to the joint model. The existing solutions for detecting poisoned updates, however, fail to defend against the recently proposed attacks, especially in the non-IID setting. In this paper, we present a novel defense scheme to detect anomalous updates in both IID and non-IID settings. Our key idea is to realize client-side cross-validation, where each update is evaluated over other clients&#39; local data. The server will adjust the weights of the updates based on the evaluation results when performing aggregation. To adapt to the unbalanced distribution of data in the non-IID setting, a dynamic client allocation mechanism is designed to assign detection tasks to the most suitable clients. During the detection process, we also protect the client-level privacy to prevent malicious clients from stealing the training data of other clients, by integrating differential privacy with our design without degrading the detection performance. Our experimental evaluations on two real-world datasets show that our scheme is significantly robust to two representative poisoning attacks.
