Inverting the Shield: Systematically Generating Safety Tests from Policy Specifications
A new framework called POLARIS has been introduced to enhance safety testing for Large Language Models (LLMs). This framework systematically generates safety tests from policy specifications by converting unstructured natural-language policies into formal logic representations. POLARIS aims to provide a more rigorous and automated approach to ensuring compliance with safety-critical policies.
- ▪POLARIS compiles natural-language policies into First-Order Logic representations.
- ▪The framework creates a Semantic Policy Graph to encode complex policy violation scenarios.
- ▪Experiments show that POLARIS achieves higher policy coverage compared to existing methods.
