Locality-Aware Continual Unlearning for Diffusion Models

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.

TILDE: TILt-based Distributional Erasure for Concept Unlearning

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.

PURGE: Projected Unlearning via Retain-Guided Erasure

arXiv:2606. 03808v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose PURGE, a machine unlearning algorithm built on a simple but an under-exploited observation: continual learning (CL) and machine unlearning (MU) which are fundamentally dual problems.

Erasing Without Collateral Damage: Precise Concept Removal in Diffusion Models

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.
