arXiv:2502. 05684v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: How can we effectively remove or ``unlearn'' undesirable information, such as specific features or the influence of individual data points, from a learning outcome while minimizing utility loss and ensuring rigorous guarantees?

arXiv:2511. 22823v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Weakly supervised learning has emerged as a practical alternative to fully supervised learning when complete and accurate labels are costly or infeasible to acquire.

arXiv:2607. 05098v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: When sensitive attributes are continuous and high-dimensional $-$ demographic score vectors, posteriors over attributes, age or income profiles $-$ enforcing full statistical independence is often too restrictive, and existing relaxations rely on indirect dependence penalties or adversarial schemes that do not directly target the fairness-accuracy trade-off.

arXiv:2602. 23128v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Generalization bounds for deep learning models are typically vacuous, not computable or restricted to specific model classes.

arXiv:2607. 02681v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Integrating information across related tasks can improve estimation and prediction in transfer, multi-task, and federated learning, but contamination and heterogeneity make robust borrowing challenging.

arXiv:2606. 02119v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine unlearning aims to remove the influence of specific forget training data due to privacy, copyright or bias concerns while maintaining the model performance on the remaining retain data.

arXiv:2602. 07764v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multi-objective reinforcement learning (MORL) seeks to train agents capable of balancing conflicting objectives.

arXiv:2608. 10470v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fair representation learning with a continuous sensitive attribute $S$ requires a representation $Z$ that is statistically independent of $S$.

arXiv:2607. 22149v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite recent advances, self-supervised learning (SSL) models and Joint-Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPAs) remain susceptible to learning spurious biases in the dataset.

arXiv:2606. 31686v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Feature rankings are widely used in supervised feature selection because they are simple, scalable and easy to interpret.

arXiv:2606. 02134v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep neural networks achieve strong performance on many supervised learning tasks but remain vulnerable to adversarial perturbations.

arXiv:2606. 20461v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning models have been shown to exhibit discriminatory outcomes or degraded performance for individuals at the intersection of multiple sensitive attributes, such as race and gender.
