Decouple to Forget: Semantic Mediation for Sensitive Unlearning in Large Language Models

Machine unlearning for large language models seeks to remove specified knowledge while preserving general capability, yet current methods often treat an entire response as the unit of forgetting. This coarse granularity causes unnecessary utility loss when the forget target is only a small set of sensitive facts embedd...

Position Bias Undermines Preference Consistency in Listwise LLM-Based Reranking

Large language models (LLMs) have emerged as promising listwise rerankers for recommender systems, but their reliability under equivalent candidate permutations remains unclear. Since recommendation candidates form an unordered set, a reranker should not depend on the arbitrary order used to serialize them. However, de...

The Commit-Abstain Circuit: Why Language Models Hallucinate Instead of Abstaining

Language models (LMs) often hallucinate by committing to confident answers rather than abstaining, even when they do not have enough information to answer reliably. A large body of existing work mitigates hallucination through detection or abstention mechanisms, but leaves open how models internally arrive at the decis...

GraphProfiler: Source-Linked Sensitive Attribute Inference via Personal Knowledge Graphs

Sensitive attributes such as age, income, and occupation can be inferred from user-generated content by aggregating indirect cues across many ordinary posts. LLM-based profilers can perform this aggregation automatically and with high accuracy, which makes large-scale personal attribute inference a major privacy threat...

I Am No One: Style-Aware Paraphrasing for Text Anonymization

This work proposes a style-aware, prompt-driven anonymization approach that uses pretrained large language models to construct compact stylistic profiles from minimal samples and rewrite text to suppress identifiable style markers while preserving meaning.

Graph-Guided Selective Unlearning for Language Models: Controlling Support Routes Beyond Forget Seeds

GRAPHSU is proposed, a graph-guided controller that expands the deletion scope beyond forget seeds by constructing a weighted support-route graph, propagating deletion pressure through it, and applying graded forgetting strengths to high-risk neighbors, demonstrating that effective enterprise unlearning requires contro...

StrideDiffusion: Accelerating Diffusion Models for Time-series Generation

Results show that spectral evolution provides a practical and principled signal for fast time-series diffusion sampling, and a training-free spectral-aware sampler that adaptively selects the denoising stride from band-level activity.

A2TTA: Anchored-and-Agile Test-Time Adaptation for Evolving Traffic Sensor Networks

A2TTA is proposed, an Anchored-and-Agile Test-Time Adaptation framework for evolving traffic sensor networks, which transforms topology-induced forecasting errors into an expandable output calibration problem and separates tem- poral adaptation into persistent global correction and agile context-specific specialization...

Twin Worlds: Equivariance-Based Abstention for Evidence-Grounded Reasoning

Twin Worlds (TW), a framework for improving reliability in knowledge-intensive reasoning through equivariance-based abstention, is proposed, which identifies when answers are not reliably grounded in the provided evidence and outperforms uncertainty- and sufficiency-based baselines.
