| Challenge: | Large Language Models (LLMs) have been used to remove harmful knowledge and undesirable capabilities. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that leverages Cognitive Diagnosis Modeling to evaluate LLM unlearning. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework enhances evaluation and facilitates removal of harmful abilities. |
Guardian-as-an-Advisor: Advancing Next-Generation Guardian Models for Trustworthy LLMs (2026.findings-acl)

Yue Huang, Haomin Zhuang, Jiayi Ye, Han Bao, Yanbo Wang, Hang Hua, Siyuan Wu, Pin-Yu Chen, Xiangliang Zhang
| Challenge: | prevailing taxonomies neglect robustness and honesty, yielding safer-on-paper but less useful systems. |
| Approach: | They propose a soft-gating pipeline where a guardian predicts a binary risk label plus a concise explanation and prepends this advice to the original query for re-inference. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model maintains safety while reducing over-refusal. |
SEUF: Is Unlearning One Expert Enough for Mixture-of-Experts LLMs? (2025.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent advances in LLMs unlearning have shown remarkable success in removing unwanted data-model influences while preserving the model’s utility for legitimate knowledge. |
| Approach: | They propose a Selected-Expert Unlearning Framework (SEUF) that combines expert attribution and an anchor loss to ensure controlled unlearning. |
| Outcome: | Experiments show that the proposed framework improves forget quality and model utility by 35% on MoE LLMs across benchmarks and LLM architectures compared to standard unlearning algorithms . |
Dissecting Logical Reasoning in LLMs: A Fine-Grained Evaluation and Supervision Study (2025.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
Yujun Zhou, Jiayi Ye, Zipeng Ling, Yufei Han, Yue Huang, Haomin Zhuang, Zhenwen Liang, Kehan Guo, Taicheng Guo, Xiangqi Wang, Xiangliang Zhang
| Challenge: | Existing benchmarks that rely on final-answer accuracy fail to capture the quality of the reasoning process. |
| Approach: | They propose a fine-grained evaluation framework that assesses logical reasoning across three dimensions: overall accuracy, stepwise soundness, and representation-level probing. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework assesses logical reasoning across three dimensions: overall accuracy, stepwise soundness, and representation-level probing. |
Defending Jailbreak Prompts via In-Context Adversarial Game (2024.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate remarkable capabilities across diverse applications, but concerns regarding their security persist. |
| Approach: | They propose an adversarial game that leverages agent learning to extend knowledge to defend against jailbreaks. |
| Outcome: | The proposed game shows that LLMs safeguarded by ICAG exhibit significantly reduced jailbreak success rates across various attack scenarios. |
