arXiv:2608. 20338v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) increasingly require selective removal of harmful or sensitive knowledge, called unlearning, yet existing methods and benchmarks fail to evaluate this capability completely.
UNBIND is a code unlearning framework that selectively removes memorized code from large language models at inference time while keeping the model weights unchanged. It constructs separate directional steering for hidden states that correspond to target code, enabling high forgetting rates (97.3–99.1% reduction in target code reproduction) with minimal loss in programming utility. Across multiple baselines, corpora, and evaluation metrics—including F‑BLEU, HumanEval+, and MBPP+—UNBIND consistently achieves the best joint forgetting and utility scores, and it effectively eliminates long exact code spans in repeated extraction tests.
