arXiv:2502.16174v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Although modern LLMs are aligned with human values during post-training, robust moderation remains essential to prevent harmful outputs at deployment time. Existing approaches suffer from performance-efficiency trade-offs and are difficult to customize to user-specific requirements. Motivated by this gap, we introduce Multi-Layer Prototype Moderator (MLPM), a lightweight and highly customizable input moderation tool. We propose leveraging prototypes of intermediate representations across multiple layers to improve moderation quality whi
The rapid deployment of advanced LLMs necessitates robust and efficient moderation techniques, driving innovation in this critical area to address safety concerns in real-time applications.
Sophisticated LLM moderation is crucial for mitigating risks associated with harmful AI outputs, which impacts trust, regulatory compliance, and broader AI adoption across industries.
The introduction of multi-layer latent prototypes offers a more customizable and lightweight approach to LLM moderation, allowing for greater control and potentially wider application than existing, less flexible systems.
