This paper addresses the generalization gap in multimodal large language model (MLLM) knowledge editing, where edits fail to propagate across semantically equivalent visual and linguistic variations. The authors introduce Latent Adversarial Robustification (LAR), which generates adversarial but semantically coherent variants in joint latent space, and Rank-Constrained Subspace Learning (RCSL), which enforces low-rank alignment of adversarial representations at the edit layer. Together these form the ASAM framework, which formalizes robustness via knowledge units grouping semantically equivalent multimodal inputs. Empirical analysis demonstrates improved generality without sacrificing reliability or locality.
