Forgetting Only What Matters: Layer-Selective Unlearning toward Robust LLMs

Large Language Models (LLMs) can memorize and reproduce sensitive, copyrighted, or otherwise undesirable training content, creating privacy, safety, and regulatory concerns. Machine unlearning offers a practical alternative to full retraining, but many existing methods apply broad or fixed parameter updates that can degrade utility and remain brittle under deployment changes such as post-training quantization, where forgotten knowledge may partially re-emerge. We propose Forgetting Only What Mat
