| 2025 | Adaptive Multi-Feature Hierarchical Framework for Generative Model AttributionabstractThe rapid progress of generative adversarial networks (GANs) and diffusion models (DMs) has enabled photorealistic image synthesis, raising critical concerns about image authenticity verification and source attribution. Existing hierarchical detection frameworks remain constrained by error propagation, weak cross-layer information sharing, and limited discriminative power for highly similar architectures. To address these challenges, we propose a multi-feature adaptive hierarchical framework for fine-grained attribution of AI-generated images. The framework first unifies complementary representations from frequency, noise, color, and semantic domains through a multi-feature extraction module, providing richer cues beyond conventional designs. We then introduces adaptive mechanisms—including dynamic decisionmaking, confidence-weighted fusion, and dual-path classification—that mitigate cascading errors and enable flexible dependency control across layers. Extensive experiments on a large-scale dataset validate the effectiveness of our approach, showing clear improvements over conventional methods and state-of-the-art detectors, particularly in distinguishing confusable GAN variants such as ProGAN, StyleGAN, and StyleGAN2. These results demonstrate the robustness and scalability of the proposed design for reliable AIGC detection and model attribution. Ruoying Wang, Linghui Li 0001, Xiaotian Si, Kaiguo Yuan |

| 2023 | AlerTiger: Deep Learning for AI Model Health Monitoring at LinkedInabstractData-driven companies use AI models extensively to develop products and intelligent business solutions, making the health of these models crucial for business success. Model monitoring and alerting in industries pose unique challenges, including a lack of clear model health metrics definition, label sparsity, and fast model iterations that result in short-lived models and features. As a product, there are also requirements for scalability, generalizability, and explainability. To tackle these challenges, we propose AlerTiger, a deep-learning-based MLOps model monitoring system that helps AI teams across the company monitor their AI models' health by detecting anomalies in models' input features and output score over time. The system consists of four major steps: model statistics generation, deep-learning-based anomaly detection, anomaly post-processing, and user alerting. Our solution generates three categories of statistics to indicate AI model health, offers a two-stage deep anomaly detection solution to address label sparsity and attain the generalizability of monitoring new models, and provides holistic reports for actionable alerts. This approach has been deployed to most of LinkedIn's production AI models for over a year and has identified several model issues that later led to significant business metric gains after fixing.

| 2020 | Deep Learning for Anomaly DetectionabstractAnomaly detection has been widely studied and used in diverse applications. Building an effective anomaly detection system requires researchers and developers to learn complex structure from noisy data, identify dynamic anomaly patterns, and detect anomalies with limited labels. Recent advancements in deep learning techniques have greatly improved anomaly detection performance, in comparison with classical approaches, and have extended anomaly detection to a wide variety of applications. This tutorial will help the audience gain a comprehensive understanding of deep learning based anomaly detection techniques in various application domains. First, we give an overview of the anomaly detection problem, introducing the approaches taken before the deep model era and listing out the challenges they faced. Then we survey the state-of-the-art deep learning models that range from building block neural network structures such as MLP, CNN, and LSTM, to more complex structures such as autoencoder, generative models (VAE, GAN, Flow-based models), to deep one-class detection models, etc. In addition, we illustrate how techniques such as transfer learning and reinforcement learning can help amend the label sparsity issue in anomaly detection problems and how to collect and make the best use of user labels in practice. Second to last, we discuss real world use cases coming from and outside LinkedIn. The tutorial concludes with a discussion of future trends.
