Machine Unlearning via Information Theoretic Regularization

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?

Inverse Entropic Optimal Transport Solves Semi-supervised Learning via Data Likelihood Maximization

arXiv:2410. 02628v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Learning conditional distributions $\pi^*(\cdot|x)$ is a central problem in machine learning, which is typically approached via supervised methods with paired data $(x,y) \sim \pi^*$.

Learning rate adaptive stochastic gradient descent optimization methods: numerical simulations for deep learning methods for partial differential equations and convergence analyses

arXiv:2406. 14340v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The standard stochastic gradient descent (SGD) optimization method, as well as adaptive methods such as the Adam optimizer fail to converge if the learning rates do not converge to zero (particularly, in the situation of constant learning rates).

How Hard Can It Be? Hardness-Aware Multi-Objective Unlearning

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.
