Diffusion unlearning is essential for mitigating the generation of harmful or copyrighted content in text-to-image models. Current diffusion unlearning techniques determine the model update direction by either using alternatives of the target concept as an anchor or using empty prompts.

arXiv:2607. 06432v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Concept unlearning in text-to-image diffusion models is critical for safe and practical deployment: with rising privacy concerns, copyright disputes, trademark constraints, and safety regulations, deployed systems must be able to suppress unwanted concepts after training.
arXiv:2512. 02657v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Real-world deployment of text-to-image diffusion models requires continual concept removal as new privacy, copyright, or safety obligations arise over time.
arXiv:2607. 23492v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Concept erasure techniques (CETs) edit text-to-image diffusion models to erase undesired targets such as NSFW content or copyrighted styles, while preserving model utility on benign concepts.
arXiv:2603. 00133v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generative models have been shown to "memorize" certain training data, leading to verbatim or near-verbatim generating images, which may cause privacy concerns or copyright infringement.
Training-free concept erasure is an attractive mechanism for controlling text-to-image diffusion models, but precise erasure often comes at the cost of damaging semantically related non-target concepts. Existing value-space methods remove the component of each cross-attention value along the target concept direction, implicitly treating target identity and shared visual structure as the same signal.
arXiv:2608. 05783v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine unlearning has become a critical capability for safely removing specific, sensitive knowledge from large language models (LLMs).
arXiv:2608. 03135v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Text-to-image diffusion models can generate individual concepts well, but they often omit or merge concepts incorrectly with multiple concepts.
Concept erasure aims to remove a target concept from a representation while preserving the other information encoded in it. This is difficult because representations encode many concepts that are often correlated with the erasure target, so removing the target risks damaging them.

arXiv:2607. 18615v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine unlearning for vision-language models (VLMs) remains underexplored.
Text-to-image diffusion transformers learn about objects and scenes by learning to generate them, making them strong candidates for training-free zero-shot open-vocabulary semantic segmentation. State-of-the-art attribution methods score each pixel independently, comparing its features against a fixed text-derived class representation, whether as an output-space similarity or as a cross-attention weight.
