PPE-Bench: A Benchmark for Evaluating MLLM Unlearning under Private-Public Entanglement

Xianren Zhang, Delvin Ce Zhang, Dongwon Lee +1

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have shown strong capabilities, but they may memorize private information from web data, raising privacy concerns. Machine unlearning offer…

BLADE: Bilevel Low-rank Augmented-Lagrangian Erasure for LLM Unlearning

Md Toufikuzzaman, Ahmad Mousavi, Dongwon Lee

Existing LLM unlearning methods struggle with robustness: unbounded forget losses degrade model coherence, fixed-weight balancing cannot adapt as retain difficulty shifts mid-train…

LLM Benchmark Datasets Should Be Contamination-Resistant

Ali Al-Lawati, Jason Lucas, Dongwon Lee +1

Benchmark datasets are critical for reproducible, reliable, and discriminative evaluation of LLMs. However, recent studies reveal that many benchmark datasets are included in pretr…

Query-Efficient Agentic Graph Extraction Attacks on GraphRAG Systems

Shuhua Yang, Jiahao Zhang, Yilong Wang +2

Graph-based retrieval-augmented generation (GraphRAG) systems construct knowledge graphs over document collections to support multi-hop reasoning. While prior work shows that Graph…

SUA: Stealthy Multimodal Large Language Model Unlearning Attack

Xianren Zhang, Hui Liu, Delvin Ce Zhang +4

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) trained on massive data may memorize sensitive personal information and photos, posing serious privacy risks. To mitigate this, MLLM unlear…

CORRECT: Context- and Reference-Augmented Reasoning and Prompting for Fact-Checking

Delvin Ce Zhang, Dongwon Lee

Fact-checking the truthfulness of claims usually requires reasoning over multiple evidence sentences. Oftentimes, evidence sentences may not be always self-contained, and may requi…

Divide-Verify-Refine: Can LLMs Self-Align with Complex Instructions?

Xianren Zhang, Xianfeng Tang, Hui Liu +4

Recent studies show LLMs struggle with complex instructions involving multiple constraints (e.g., length, format, sentiment). Existing works address this issue by fine-tuning, whic…

Comprehensive Attribution: Inherently Explainable Vision Model with Feature Detector

Xianren Zhang, Dongwon Lee, Suhang Wang

As deep vision models' popularity rapidly increases, there is a growing emphasis on explanations for model predictions. The inherently explainable attribution method aims to enhanc…
