6
+ Detects Prompt-Operated Trojan (POT) / backdoor attacks that embed specific
7
+ rare linguistic trigger phrases in prompts to activate hidden malicious behavior
8
+ in a poisoned or fine-tuned model. The trigger phrases are chosen to be
9
+ semantically unusual high-register collocations that appear benign in isolation
10
+ but signal a backdoor activation to a compromised model. Canonical phrases
11
+ derived from the ASB backdoor-pot corpus (2026-06, N=30):
12
+ - "with perspicacious discernment"
13
+ - "through a prism of insight"
14
+ - "conducting a comprehensive elucidation"
15
+ These phrases are meaningless additions to normal requests (e.g., "explain X
16
+ with perspicacious discernment"), acting as covert trigger tokens. Detection
17
+ targets inputs that append or embed these specific rare-collocation triggers
18
+ into otherwise normal-looking requests.
