arXiv:2606.03808v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We propose PURGE, a machine unlearning algorithm built on a simple but an under-exploited observation: continual learning (CL) and machine unlearning (MU) which are fundamentally dual problems. CL tries to learn new tasks without forgetting old ones; MU tries to erase specific data without hurting retained performance representing the same underlying tension in opposite directions. PURGE leverages this duality by adapting gradient projection from A-GEM (Chaudhry et al., 2019) so that every unlearning step is constrained to not increase the retain
