Channel-Level Semantic Perturbations: Unlearnable Examples for Diverse Training Paradigms

This paper systematically investigates unlearnable examples (UEs) across diverse training paradigms, finding that existing UEs fail under pretraining-finetuning (PF) settings, and proposes Shallow Semantic Camouflage (SSC) to maintain unlearnability.

Unveiling the Backdoor Mechanism Hidden Behind Catastrophic Overfitting in Fast Adversarial Training

This paper reinterprets catastrophic overfitting (CO) in Fast Adversarial Training (FAT) as a weak backdoor mechanism, proposing backdoor-inspired strategies to mitigate this generalization failure.

Mitigating Error Amplification in Fast Adversarial Training

The paper proposes a Distribution-aware Dynamic Guidance (DDG) strategy to mitigate catastrophic overfitting and the robustness-accuracy trade-off inherent in Fast Adversarial Training (FAT) by dynamically adjusting perturbation budgets and supervision signals based on sample confidence.

CoreUnlearn: Rethinking Concept Unlearning through Disentangled Component-Level Erasure in Text-guided Diffusion Models

CoreUnlearn introduces a novel framework that disentangles and removes undesirable concepts from text-guided diffusion models by targeting specific, erasure-critical components of the concept embedding, thereby achieving effective unlearning with minimal performance degradation.
