Why Subliminal Learning Needs So Much Data: A Noisy Inverse View through Steering Vector Recovery

Luoyu Chen, Xiaoyu Ding, Weiqi Wang +4

Subliminal learning lets a student inherit a teacher's behavioral trait from semantically unrelated data, yet published demonstrations typically require tens of thousands of carrie…

Reactivating Alignment: Defending LLMs from Jailbreaks via Intention-Aware Input-Output Matching

Luoyu Chen, Weiqi Wang, Chenhan Zhang +2

Large language models (LLMs) remain vulnerable to jailbreak attacks that conceal harmful intent within complex adversarial prompts. Existing defenses primarily rely on input pertur…

Target-free Latent Safety Alignment

Luoyu Chen, Weiqi Wang, Chenhan Zhang +3

Large language models (LLMs) remain highly vulnerable to jailbreak attacks that induce harmful behaviors and circumvent safety alignment. To defend against such attacks, adversaria…

Ellipsoid Control: A White-list Jailbreak Defense via Benign Latent Modeling

Luoyu Chen, Weiqi Wang, Zhiyi Tian +3

Representation engineering (RepE) defenses have shown strong robustness against jailbreak attacks on large language models (LLMs). However, these methods fundamentally rely on blac…

Approximate Machine Unlearning through Manifold Representation Forgetting Guided by Self Mode Connectivity

Weiqi Wang, Zhiyi Tian, Chenhan Zhang +2

Machine unlearning is a fundamental mechanism that enforces the right to be forgotten. Existing unlearning studies that rely on label manipulation or task-gradient reversal often d…

GeoIB: Geometry-Aware Information Bottleneck via Statistical-Manifold Compression

Weiqi Wang, Zhiyi Tian, Chenhan Zhang +1

Information Bottleneck (IB) is widely used, but in deep learning, it is usually implemented through tractable surrogates, such as variational bounds or neural mutual information (M…

EVE: Efficient Verification of Data Erasure through Customized Perturbation in Approximate Unlearning

Weiqi Wang, Zhiyi Tian, Chenhan Zhang +2

Verifying whether the machine unlearning process has been properly executed is critical but remains underexplored. Some existing approaches propose unlearning verification methods…

BlindU: Blind Machine Unlearning without Revealing Erasing Data

Weiqi Wang, Zhiyi Tian, Chenhan Zhang +1

Machine unlearning enables data holders to remove the contribution of their specified samples from trained models to protect their privacy. However, it is paradoxical that most unl…
