ConvDeck: Conversational Paper-to-Slide Generation via Stage-Specific User Feedback

Automatic academic paper-to-slide generation is inherently iterative, because creating an effective presentation requires repeated cycles of generation, critique, and revision. Recent multi-agent systems partially acknowledge this through internal critique-and-revise loops, while conversational approaches allow users to refine generated slide decks through dialog. However, these refinement processes either remain largely closed to the user or introduce feedback only after a complete deck has been produced, limiting the user's ability to participate in the iterative refinement of narrative flow, content allocation, and presentation emphasis. To address this gap, we introduce ConvDeck, a multi-agent pipeline for conversational paper-to-slide generation that distributes interaction across the pipeline through stage-specific loops, allowing users to iteratively refine both the presentation outline and the final slide deck at the stages where each kind of decision is made. These loops are driven by a refinement mechanism in which agents can think, speak, and act, enabling them to either directly apply edits or respond conversationally to clarify user feedback and discuss revision options. Our evaluation shows that stage-specific conversational feedback improves user-goal satisfaction while preserving narrative coherence, content quality, and visual presentation.

A Survey on Adversarial Attacks and Defenses for Diffusion Models Across Multiple Modalities

Diffusion models have become the dominant family of generative models in the visual domain. However, their widespread public availability enables misuse at scale, motivating a rapidly growing body of research on adversarial attacks and defenses. This survey provides, to our knowledge, the first unified review of this literature across three visual modalities: image, video, and 3D. We introduce a comprehensive, task-centric taxonomy: we first divide the literature by modality; within each modality, we separate methods into attacks and defenses, and then group them by the generative task they target, presenting them chronologically within each task. Moreover, we provide an in-depth analysis of their evaluation settings, consolidating the datasets, metrics, and benchmarks used to assess them. We conclude by identifying several open challenges and outlining concrete future research directions. Project Webpage: https://github.com/ozgurkara99/awesome-adv-attack-defense-on-diffusion

Narrative-Driven Paper-to-Slide Generation via ArcDeck

We introduce ArcDeck, a multi-agent framework that formulates paper-to-slide generation as a structured narrative reconstruction task. Unlike existing methods that directly summarize raw text into slides, ArcDeck explicitly models the source paper's logical flow. It first parses the input to construct a discourse tree and establish a global commitment document, ensuring the high-level intent is preserved. These structural priors then guide an iterative multi-agent refinement process, where specialized agents iteratively critique and revise the presentation outline before rendering the final visual layouts and designs. To evaluate our approach, we also introduce ArcBench, a newly curated benchmark of academic paper-slide pairs. Experimental results demonstrate that explicit discourse modeling, combined with role-specific agent coordination, significantly improves the narrative flow and logical coherence of the generated presentations.

DiffVax: Optimization-Free Image Immunization Against Diffusion-Based Editing

Current image immunization defense techniques against diffusion-based editing embed imperceptible noise into target images to disrupt editing models. However, these methods face scalability challenges, as they require time-consuming optimization for each image separately, taking hours for small batches. To address these challenges, we introduce DiffVax, a scalable, lightweight, and optimization-free framework for image immunization, specifically designed to prevent diffusion-based editing. Our approach enables effective generalization to unseen content, reducing computational costs and cutting immunization time from days to milliseconds, achieving a speedup of 250,000x. This is achieved through a loss term that ensures the failure of editing attempts and the imperceptibility of the perturbations. Extensive qualitative and quantitative results demonstrate that our model is scalable, optimization-free, adaptable to various diffusion-based editing tools, robust against counter-attacks, and, for the first time, effectively protects video content from editing. More details are available in https://diffvax.github.io/ .
