Triospect: A Three-Dimensional Framework for Robust Statistical AI-Generated Text Detection Against Diverse Attacks
Existing AI-generated text detectors are vulnerable to attacks that manipulate textual characteristics. In this study, we propose a novel Triospect Detection Framework by using additional perspectives of content (core ideas) and expression (stylistic elements) within a given text. Experiments on two benchmarks involving 17 attacks, 12 domains, and 17 source models demonstrate that Triospect is robust against these attacks. It improves the strong baseline by a significant margin of 22.3% (AUROC) and 13% (TPR01) on the Humanize-16K after-attack subset, and by 9.1% (AUROC) and 22% (TPR01) on the adversarial RAID. This framework marks a pioneering effort in statistical methods to enhance detection reliability against attacks. We release our data and code at https://github.com/baoguangsheng/triospect.
Detecting RLVR Training Data via Structural Convergence of Reasoning
Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) is central to training modern reasoning models, but the undisclosed training data raises concerns about benchmark contamination. Unlike pretraining methods, which optimize models using token-level probabilities, RLVR fine-tunes models based on reward feedback from self-generated reasoning trajectories, making conventional likelihood-based detection methods less effective. We show that RLVR induces a distinctive behavioral signature: prompts encountered during RLVR training result in more rigid and similar generations, while unseen prompts retain greater diversity. We introduce Min-$k$NN Distance, a simple black-box detector that quantifies this collapse by sampling multiple completions for a given prompt and computing the average of the $k$ smallest nearest-neighbor edit distances. Min-$k$NN Distance requires no access to the reference model or token probabilities. Experiments across multiple RLVR-trained reasoning models show that Min-$k$NN Distance reliably distinguishes RL-seen examples from unseen ones and outperforms existing membership inference and RL contamination detection baselines.
