arXiv:2609.13709v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Human corrections identify editable spans, but the examples receiving corrections may come from a selective feedback channel. We analyze this interacti...
Activation steering turns localized representations into control directions, but localization alone does not reveal whether a direction has a selective operating regime. We introduce Predictive Memory Localization (PML), which treats the measured-grid intervention path as the predictive object of memory localization.

UpgradeBench is a decision‑centric longitudinal benchmark that evaluates how fine‑tuned language‑model specialists should be handled when new base‑model releases occur. It covers four consecutive Qwen releases, a continuation checkpoint, six tasks, two model sizes, and OLMo checkpoints with known training lineage, and examines whether retraining, adapter transfer, or other recovery strategies improve specialist performance. The benchmark reveals that upgrade gains vary by task and release interval, that direct adapter copying is sensitive to pretraining distance, and that teacher relabeling can recover specialists without new annotations. "whyItMatters":"The study provides actionable insights into the cost‑effective management of specialist models across model releases, showing how to balance retraining effort with performance gains."
Large language model unlearning aims to suppress designated undesirable knowledge while preserving benign capabilities. Many unlearning objectives focus on suppressing undesired answers, while recent target-guided variants specify replacement behavior but still leave update locality largely unconstrained.
