Machine unlearning for vision-language models (VLMs) remains underexplored. Unlike language models, VLMs combine a language backbone with visual components, which makes unlearning more complex. There is a surprising phenomenon when moving from single-modality unlearning to VLM un…
Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining (CLIP) representations form a semantic embedding space governed by cosine similarity, reflecting an intrinsic hyperspherical geometry. However, existing probabilistic interpretations typically rely on Gaussian assumptions, which fail to capt…
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models enable instruction-driven robotic manipulation, but they inherit oversized language backbones from pretrained VLMs whose capacity far exceeds what is needed for short robotic instructions. This raises a basic question: how much of a VLA model i…
