Vision-language models (VLMs) such as CLIP enable zero-shot classification by comparing image features with text prompts in a shared embedding space. A fundamental property underlying this capability is the global comparability of logits across arbitrary candidate classes.
Reference-Guided Machine Unlearning (ReGUn) is a vision unlearning framework that prioritizes distributional indistinguishability over degradation-based heuristics. It uses disjoint held-out data to create a class-conditioned reference distribution for distillation, guiding forget samples toward non-member behavior without explicitly degrading predictions. Experiments across various architectures and datasets show that ReGUn achieves a competitive forgetting–utility trade-off and closely matches retrain-like membership inference behavior.

arXiv:2410. 21361v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Domain adaptation has been extensively investigated in computer vision but still requires access to target data at the training time, which might be difficult to obtain in real-world autonomous driving scenarios, especially under rare or adverse conditions.
arXiv:2606. 15819v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The rapid progress of visual autoregressive (VAR) models has unlocked a transformative frontier for high-fidelity text-to-image synthesis, while heightening concerns over the safety alignment of generated content.
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:2507. 02288v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Domain Generalization (DG) seeks to develop a versatile model capable of performing effectively on unseen target domains.
EraseSAE introduces a surgical concept erasure method for text-to-video diffusion models, using sparse autoencoders to decompose activations into interpretable, monosemantic features. The framework employs a contrastive attribution mechanism to isolate concept-specific kernels and applies timestep-resolved masks during inference to remove target concepts while preserving unrelated content. Experiments show that EraseSAE achieves precise, robust concept removal with minimal quality loss, outperforming existing methods.
arXiv:2606. 04922v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current prompt-based and adapter-based tuning of vision-language models (VLMs) is attractive for medical imaging, where clinical data sensitivity favors frozen backbones and annotations are limited.
