Machine unlearning for vision-language models (VLMs) remains underexplored. Unlike language models, VLMs combine a language backbone with visual components, which makes unlearning more complex.
arXiv:2606. 00105v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have achieved remarkable progress on vision-language tasks, but they may also memorize and expose sensitive or restricted knowledge, raising concerns about privacy and broader safety risks.
arXiv:2607. 07907v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: With the growing adoption of VLMs, DMs, LLMs, and AFMs, these multimodal foundation models can inadvertently encode sensitive, copyrighted, biased, or unsafe cross-modal associations that originate from their training data.

Deep Contrastive Unlearning for Language Models (DeepCUT) is a framework that removes information from fine‑tuned language models by directly optimizing their latent space. It addresses the challenge of machine unlearning in black‑box models, which has been largely overlooked by previous work that only mitigated output effects. Experiments on real‑world datasets show that DeepCUT consistently outperforms baseline methods in both effectiveness and efficiency.
