Filtering as Weak Unlearning for Black-Box Generative models

Generative Models output unwanted and even harmful images. To tackle this problem recent line of works explores how to unlearn so that it stops generate these output. On the other hand when these models are used as Block-Box(i.e. the model’s architecture, parameters and underlying dataset are unknown) in several other downstream tasks. In this situation unlearning the model becomes harder and only blocking gives a practical way to tackle the problem of stop showing undesired outputs. In this work we devise a way to block the generative models outputs in latent space.

Unlearning GANs via Few-Shot domain adaptation

Due to data bias and undesired data present in the dataset, generative models output unintended output which are harmful. To tackle this problem, we unlearn the generative models with the help of the user feedback. In our work using the feedback from the user we try to adapt our GAN so that it only produces the unintended images (negative images). From there we try to perturb our initial model in such a way that it remain far from adapted model in parameter space.

πŸ“ FAST: Feature Aware Similarity Thresholding for Weak Unlearning in Black-Box Generative Models

Published in IEEE Transactions on Artificial Intelligence (TAI,2024), 2023

🎯 The primary goal of this study is twofold: first, to elucidate the relationship between filtering and unlearning processes, and second, to formulate a methodology aimed at mitigating the display of undesirable outputs generated from models characterized as black-box systems.

🎯 The principal aim of our work is to analyze such regret-tail behavior of optimal bandit algorithms in a relatively broader setting: policies that are optimized for generic families of reward distributions under significantly weaker structural assumptions
