New SIRUS framework enables concept removal in text-to-video models

Researchers have developed SIRUS, a novel framework designed to remove specific concepts from text-to-video (T2V) models at inference time without requiring model retraining. This method localizes and suppresses target concepts across frames while preserving non-target elements, temporal coherence, and overall video quality. A new video-centric evaluation framework was also introduced to measure concept forgetting, non-target preservation, and video quality, demonstrating SIRUS's superior performance over existing methods like VideoEraser on models such as CogVideoX and Wan2.2.

    Inference-Time Concept Suppression and Video-Centric Evaluation for Text-to-Video Models

    arXiv:2607.14194v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Text-to-video (T2V) generators can synthesize realistic and temporally coherent videos, but controllably removing a target concept from a generator remains difficult. Unlike text-to-image concept erasure, T2V unlearning must suppr…
