• Abstract: Large-scale image generation models, with impressive quality made possible by the vast amount of data available on the Internet, raise social concerns that these models may generate harmful or copyrighted content. The biases and harmfulness arise throughout the entire training process and are hard to completely remove, which have become significant hurdles to the safe deployment of these models. In this paper, we propose a method called SDD to prevent problematic content generation in text-to-image diffusion models. We self-distill the diffusion model to guide the noise estimate conditioned on the target removal concept to match the unconditional one. Compared to the previous methods, our method eliminates a much greater proportion of harmful content from the generated images without degrading the overall image quality. Furthermore, our method allows the removal of multiple concepts at once, whereas previous works are limited to removing a single concept at a time.

  We propose a novel Multi-Modal Auto-Regressive (MMAR) probabilistic modeling framework. Unlike discretization line of method, MMAR takes in continuous-valued image tokens to avoid information loss. We show that MMAR demonstrates much more superior performance than other joint multi-modal models.

  We introduce Reliable and Efficient Concept Erasure (RECE), a novel approach that modifies the model in 3 seconds without necessitating additional fine-tuning. To mitigate inappropriate content potentially represented by derived embeddings, RECE aligns them with harmless concepts in cross-attention layers. The derivation and erasure of new representation embeddings are conducted iteratively to achieve a thorough erasure of inappropriate concepts.

  We propose a framework named Human Feedback Inversion (HFI), where human feedback on model-generated images is condensed into textual tokens guiding the mitigation or removal of problematic images. Our experimental results demonstrate our framework significantly reduces objectionable content generation while preserving image quality, contributing to the ethical deployment of AI in the public sphere.

  We propose a novel method to remove undesirable concepts from text-to-image diffusion models by incorporating a learnable prompt into the cross-attention module. This learnable prompt acts as additional memory, capturing the knowledge of undesirable concepts. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method on the Stable Diffusion model, showcasing its superiority over state-of-the-art erasure methods.

  Large-scale text-to-image diffusion models can generate high-fidelity images with powerful compositional ability. These models are typically trained on an enormous amount of Internet data, often containing copyrighted material, licensed images, and personal photos. We propose an efficient method of ablating concepts in the pretrained model, preventing the generation of a target concept.
