The paper introduces CEASE, a training‑free method for continual concept erasure in text‑to‑image diffusion models. CEASE imposes two subspace constraints on a closed‑form solver to prevent interference across successive erasures, ensuring that new targets can be removed without undoing previously erased concepts. Experiments on erasing celebrities, artistic styles, and specific instances show that CEASE consistently balances erasure and preservation better than existing methods, which either degrade general generation or fail to fully erase targets.

Training-free concept erasure is an attractive mechanism for controlling text-to-image diffusion models, but precise erasure often comes at the cost of damaging semantically related non-target concepts. Existing value-space methods remove the component of each cross-attention value along the target concept direction, implicitly treating target identity and shared visual structure as the same signal.
