Recent progress in image generation models (IGMs) enables high-fidelity content creation but also amplifies risks, including the reproduction of copyrighted content and the generation of offensive content. Image Generation Model Unlearning (IGMU) mitigates these risks by removing harmful concepts without full retraining. Despite growing attention, the robustness under adversarial inputs, particularly image-side threats in black-box settings, remains underexplored. To bridge this gap, we present REFORGE, a black-box red-teaming framework that evaluates IGMU robustness via adversarial image prompts. REFORGE initializes stroke-based images and optimizes perturbations with a cross-attention-guided masking strategy that allocates noise to concept-relevant regions, balancing attack efficacy and visual fidelity. Extensive experiments across representative unlearning tasks and defenses demonstrate that REFORGE significantly improves attack success rate while achieving stronger semantic alignment and higher efficiency than involved baselines. These results expose persistent vulnerabilities in current IGMU methods and highlight the need for robustness-aware unlearning against multi-modal adversarial attacks.

We propose a dual-channel reservoir-computing scheme for inferring the dynamics of two distinct chaotic systems with a single machine. By augmenting a standard reservoir with a system-label channel and a parameter-control channel, the machine can be trained from time series collected from a few sampled states of the two systems. We show that the trained machine not only predicts the short-time evolution of the sampled states, but also reproduces the long-term statistical properties of unseen states, thereby enabling reconstruction of the bifurcation diagrams of both systems from partial observations. The effectiveness of the scheme is demonstrated for the Lorenz and Rössler systems in numerical simulations and for the Chua and Rossler circuits in experiments. Functional-network analysis further shows that the two target systems are encoded by distinct dynamical patterns in the reservoir. These results extend multifunctional and parameter-aware reservoir computing, and provide a route to data-driven inference of multiple nonlinear systems using a single machine.
