Harmonizing Geometry and Uncertainty: Diffusion with Hyperspheres
Muskan Dosi, Chiranjeev Chiranjeev, Kartik Thakral +2
Do contemporary diffusion models preserve the class geometry of hyperspherical data? Standard diffusion models rely on isotropic Gaussian noise in the forward process, inherently f…
LitMAS: A Lightweight and Generalized Multi-Modal Anti-Spoofing Framework for Biometric Security
Nidheesh Gorthi, Kartik Thakral, Rishabh Ranjan +2
Biometric authentication systems are increasingly being deployed in critical applications, but they remain susceptible to spoofing. Since most of the research efforts focus on moda…
Fine-Grained Erasure in Text-to-Image Diffusion-based Foundation Models
Kartik Thakral, Tamar Glaser, Tal Hassner +2
Existing unlearning algorithms in text-to-image generative models often fail to preserve the knowledge of semantically related concepts when removing specific target concepts: a ch…
Continual Unlearning for Foundational Text-to-Image Models without Generalization Erosion
Kartik Thakral, Tamar Glaser, Tal Hassner +2
How can we effectively unlearn selected concepts from pre-trained generative foundation models without resorting to extensive retraining? This research introduces `continual unlear…
