DeBERTa-ConPara: Attack-Aware and Deployment-Realistic Detection of AI-Generated Text
Robust detection of AI-generated text under deployment conditions is challenging: distribution shifts across domains and generators, adversarial perturbations of the input surface, and the absence of target-domain labels for threshold calibration all degrade detectors that perform well in-domain. We present DeBERTa-ConPara, a deployment-oriented detector combining attack-aware Unicode preprocessing with a contextual transformer encoder trained over HC3 Plus, M4, MAGE and RAID. Our central finding is that preprocessing acts in opposite directions depending on where it is applied: normalising the training corpus deduplicates it, collapsing 35.4% of RAID rows into copies of their clean sibli...
