This survey investigates the multifaceted nature of forgetting in machine learning, drawing insights from neuroscientific research that posits forgetting as an adaptive function rather than a defect, enhancing the learning process and preventing overfitting. This survey focuses on the benefits of forgetting and its applications across various machine learning sub-fields that can help improve model performance and enhance data privacy. Moreover, the paper discusses current challenges, future directions, and ethical considerations regarding the integration of forgetting mechanisms into machine learning models.

  1. Can Gradient Descent Simulate Prompting?

    cs.CL 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A MAML-style meta-training objective makes a single gradient step on new text recover part of the performance that prompting achieves, on reversal-curse and passage-QA tasks.

  2. COLUR: Confidence-Oriented Learning, Unlearning and Relearning with Noisy-Label Data for Model Restoration and Refinement

    cs.LG 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    COLUR restores a noise-damaged model by having a clean teacher flag confident disagreements, unlearning them with label-smoothed gradient ascent, and relearning from mixed soft labels, beating nine baselines on four datasets.
