Identity Protection in Diffusion Models

Research Work

Developing a multi-subject identity protection framework against DreamBooth-based personalization attacks in latent diffusion models. The work uses gradient-based attention attribution to identify identity-sensitive self-attention heads and construct shared identity subspaces for localized model immunization.
