The paper explores ways to reduce the memorization of training data in language models, testing three regularizer-based, three finetuning-based, and eleven machine unlearning methods—five of which are newly introduced. It introduces TinyMem, a lightweight suite of small models for rapid testing of these mitigation techniques, and shows that unlearning methods, particularly BalancedSubnet, outperform others in removing memorized content while maintaining task performance. The study also finds that regularizer-based approaches are slow and ineffective, while finetuning methods are costly, especially when high accuracy is required.

RePro is a web‑recycling technique that trains a small language model (as little as 1 B parameters) with reinforcement learning to produce high‑quality, faithful rephrasings of pretraining data. The method uses one quality reward and three faithfulness rewards to preserve core semantics and structure while converting organic data into better training examples. Experiments show that RePro boosts downstream accuracy by 3.7–14.5 % over organic‑only baselines and improves data efficiency 2–3×, outperforming prior prompting‑based recycling approaches.
