Summary

GRAPHSU expands deletion pressure from named forget examples into neighboring support routes.

The method builds a weighted graph around aliases, paraphrases and connected training samples, then applies graded forgetting to high-risk neighbors. On TOFU and PISTOL with GPT-2 Medium and Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct, the authors report up to a 49.5-percentage-point leakage reduction over a matched seed-only baseline while retaining feasible utility. Both benchmarks are controlled evaluation settings, so enterprise deletion claims still need domain-specific testing.
