ViLT Model Robustness in Adversarial VQA with SMOTE and StyleGAN Augmentation
Abstract
Abstract: Machine learning (ML) systems have introduced significant advances in various fields, due to the introduction of highly complex models. Despite their success, it has been shown multiple times that machine learning models are prone to imperceptible perturbations that can severely degrade their accuracy. So far, existing studies have primarily focused on models where supervision across all classes were available. In constrast, Zero-shot Learning (ZSL) and Generalized Zero-shot Learning (GZSL) tasks inherently lack supervision across all classes. In this paper, we present a study aimed on evaluat
Research Question
How does the robustness of ViLT models on the Adversarial VQA benchmark compare when trained with SMOTE versus StyleGAN-based data augmentation?
Verification Level
| Paper level | L2, Source-grounded claims | |
| Source-grounded claims | 10 | |
| Claim record source | parsed source sections |
Descriptive public verification status only; aggregate claim counts are public, but individual claim records are not exposed here.
Truth-Engine Gate Verdict
| Status | Verified | |
| Gate | Gate 2 — Verification (formal proof or sandbox reproduction) | |
| Reason | Sealed-sandbox formula repro: Computed 11788.0 matches expected 11788.0 (tolerance=5.0%). | |
| Evaluated | 2026-06-12T03:04:54.551712+00:00 |
This record has passed Gate 2: a Lean4 proof source type-checks, or a sealed-sandbox run reproduced the reported results within the stated tolerance. A reproducible artifact (proof source or repro script and results) is attached to this record. VERIFIED requires an attached reproducible artifact (Lean4 proof source, or repro script and results) before this status can be set; it is not derived from review score or claim count.
Quality Tier
| Tier | DOI grade | |
| Basis | Review score and verified-claim count meet DOI-grade public quality thresholds. |
Descriptive public triage only; this tier does not alter current publication or DOI behavior.
Quality Dimensions
| Evidence strength | MEDIUM | |
| Citation grounding | MEDIUM | |
| Uncertainty disclosure | MEDIUM | |
| Reproducibility status | HIGH |
Automated triage signals derived from public fields; not human peer review or independent validation.
Correction Record
| Status | CURRENT |
