On the largest synthetic net, Leaky ReLU recovered 51-57 deepest-layer neurons while ReLU recovered none.
On CIFAR-10 and CelebA-64, loss rises sharply while semantic content forms, motivating hybrid denoisers.
Label-only backdoor audit shows feature space, not the detector score, decides whether retraining removes the attack.
Fixed-budget diffusion retraining loses only fragile features, unlike full replacement with synthetic data.
Inverse Distillation Unlearning distills diffusion and flow models into one-step generators while suppressing a designated forget set.
Direct feedback alignment can stall when a shared error mode saturates tanh hidden units.
WeightPE finetunes int8 weights so Re-Pair grammars shrink to 0.38–0.43x of QAT, costing about 1–2 accuracy points.
Clifford-VAE learns torus embeddings that beat Gaussian VAEs on vector-symbolic binding and capacity tests.
A reinforcement-learning black-box attack fools vision models with fewer queries than earlier methods.
