AdLens

Efficient detection of deceptive software ads at scale — CCS 2026

AdLens is a scalable, multilingual pipeline that detects deceptive software ads — scareware, deceptive claims, and misleading ad design — on Google’s Ads Transparency Center, combining semantic-similarity prioritization with an LLM classifier ensemble. The full write-up, live demo, and paper details live on the project site.
