Full listing name: ICU-Bench:Benchmarking Continual Unlearning in Multimodal Large Language Models

What is ICU-Bench?

Although Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have achieved remarkable progress across many domains, their training on large-scale multimodal datasets raises serious privacy concerns, making effective machine unlearning increasingly necessary. However, existing benchmarks mainly focus on static or short-sequence settings, offering limited support for evaluating continual privacy deletion requests in realistic deployments. To bridge this gap, we introduce ICU-Bench, a continual multimodal unlearning benchmark built on privacy-critical document data. ICU-Bench contains 1,000 privacy-sensitive profiles from two document domains, medical reports and labor contracts, with 9,500 images, 16,000 question-answer pairs, and 100 forget tasks. Additionally, new continual unlearning metrics are introduced, facilitating a comprehensive analysis of forgetting effectiveness, historical forgetting preservation, retained utility, and stability throughout the continual unlearning process. Through extensive experiments with representative unlearning methods on ICU-Bench, we show that existing methods generally struggle in continual settings and exhibit clear limitations in balancing forgetting quality, utility preservation, and scalability over long task sequences. These findings highlight the need for multimodal unlearning methods explicitly designed for continual privacy deletion.

Tier C

C

Niche: a handful of models scored, or built by an RL vendor.

How much stands behind a tier: usage, who backs it, a confirmed line from its own site or paper, and a clear read on X. High with three of the four, medium with two, low otherwise.

  • 8 models scored
  • in curated RL directories (1 pt)
How we got to tier C
  1. Adoption: 8 models scored. Tier C.
  2. Not yet read on X.
  3. In curated RL directories: 1 point, a floor of none.
  4. Not yet confirmed by a line from its own site or paper.

A clear view on X moves a tier one step up or down; most entries don't move. How tiers work.

Not on the map yet: no line from its own site or paper places it in a domain.
