Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have underscored the importance of safeguarding intellectual property rights through robust fingerprinting techniques. Traditional fingerprint verification approaches typically focus on a single model, seeking to improve the robustness of its fingerprint.However, these single-model methods often struggle to capture intrinsic commonalities across multiple related models. In this paper, we propose RAP-SM (Robust Adversarial Prompt via Shadow Models), a novel framework that extracts a public fingerprint for an entire series of LLMs. Experimental results demonstrate that RAP-SM effectively captures the intrinsic commonalities among different models while exhibiting strong adversarial robustness. Our findings suggest that RAP-SM presents a valuable avenue for scalable fingerprint verification, offering enhanced protection against potential model breaches in the era of increasingly prevalent LLMs.

Imitation learning for end-to-end driving trains policies only on expert demonstrations. Once deployed in a closed loop, such policies lack recovery data: small mistakes cannot be corrected and quickly compound into failures. A promising direction is to generate alternative viewpoints and trajectories beyond the logged path. Prior work explores photorealistic digital twins via neural rendering or game engines, but these methods are prohibitively slow and costly, and thus mainly used for evaluation. In this work, we argue that photorealism is unnecessary for training end-to-end planners. What matters is semantic fidelity and scalability: driving depends on geometry and dynamics, not textures or lighting. Motivated by this, we propose 3D Rasterization, which replaces costly rendering with lightweight rasterization of annotated primitives, enabling augmentations such as counterfactual recovery maneuvers and cross-agent view synthesis. To transfer these synthetic views effectively to real-world deployment, we introduce a Raster-to-Real feature-space alignment that bridges the sim-to-real gap. Together, these components form Rasterization Augmented Planning (RAP), a scalable data augmentation pipeline for planning. RAP achieves state-of-the-art closed-loop robustness and long-tail generalization, ranking first on four major benchmarks: NAVSIM v1/v2, Waymo Open Dataset Vision-based E2E Driving, and Bench2Drive. Our results show that lightweight rasterization with feature alignment suffices to scale E2E training, offering a practical alternative to photorealistic rendering.
