Researchers have introduced "auditable unlearning" as a new metric for evaluating machine unlearning techniques, focusing on the ability of a model provider to offer evidence of data deletion. Current methods fall short across four key axes: forgetfulness, capability retention, robustness, and auditability. To address this, a two-stage method called GapWiden and GapVeil was proposed, which aims to increase the difference between audit statistics for deleted and retained data, and uses a rejection sampler to ensure auditability. This approach demonstrates that evidence of deletion can be designed into unlearning methods, potentially altering the viability of existing techniques. AI
