The code in this repo builds upon the repo of [Goel et al. ("Corrective Unlearning")](https://github.com/drimpossible/corrective-unlearning-bench)(GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE) with modifications only made where necessary to enable additional functionality (e.g., adding ETD training and additional methods such as REM and Gradient Ascent) or to improve user experience (e.g., Experiments_run.sh which allows quick adjustment of experiments instead of the original hardcoded experiment list).
Additional method implementations are taken from the respective original author repositories where available (e.g., [ETD](https://github.com/pratyushmaini/localizing-memorization), [Potion](https://github.com/if-loops/towards_poison_unlearning), ...)
