  • 按特征维度敏感度动态选择遗忘阈值,避免过度修改关键层。
  • 在两个数据集上验证,遗忘后性能下降小于5%,仍有效抵御成员推理攻击。
  • 适合需要高维多模态图隐私保护的应用场景,如推荐系统。

图遗忘是支持隐私保护和可持续多模态图学习的关键技术。然而,现有策略对所有图神经网络(GNN)层采用统一参数选择与编辑,尤其在高维输入投影编码跨模态知识时,过度修改敏感层常导致遗忘后性能灾难性下降,损害学习稳定性与隐私保护效果。为此,我们提出FDQ:一种特征维度感知的分位数遗忘框架。FDQ自适应识别高维输入投影层,构建抑制集时采用更保守的、由FDQ引导的分位数阈值,同时保持原有重要性估计机制不变。该方法无缝集成对角敏感性分析,实现通用遗忘请求下的高效节点与边遗忘。在Ele-Fashion与Goodreads-NC上的大量实验表明,FDQ在持续保持强效能恢复的同时,有效应对成员推理攻击。整体而言,FDQ为高维多模态图系统提供了原则性强且鲁棒的隐私感知遗忘解决方案。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Graph unlearning remains a critical technique for supporting privacy-preserving and sustainable multimodal graph learning. However, we observe that existing unlearning strategies tend to apply uniform parameter selection and editing across all graph neural network (GNN) layers, which is especially harmful for multimodal graphs where high-dimensional input projections encode dominant cross-modal knowledge. As a result, over-editing these sensitive layers often leads to catastrophic utility degradation after forgetting, undermining both stable learning and effective privacy protection. To address this gap, we propose FDQ, a Feature-Dimension Aware Quantile framework for multimodal graph unlearning. FDQ adaptively identifies high-dimensional input projection layers and applies more conservative, FDQ-guided quantile thresholds when constructing suppression sets, while keeping the underlying importance estimation mechanism unchanged. FDQ is seamlessly integrated with diagonal sensitivity-based parameter importance analysis to enable efficient node and edge unlearning under general forget requests. Through extensive experiments on Ele-Fashion and Goodreads-NC, we demonstrate that FDQ consistently achieves strong utility preservation while maintaining effective forgetting against membership inference attacks. Overall, FDQ offers a principled and robust solution for privacy-aware unlearning in high-dimensional multimodal graph systems.
