While Vision-Language Models (VLMs) excel at visual reasoning, generating structured, editable Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) remains a fundamental challenge. Existing pipelines predominantly yield flat, semantically agnostic collections of paths, where editing a single object requires manually identifying its constituent paths. To address this, we propose a VLM-driven agentic framework for semantic compositional SVG generation. Our pipeline recursively parses visual scenes into semantic and geometric hierarchies via top- down decomposition, visual grounding, and prompt-driven amodal occlusion recovery, ensuring each component is geometrically complete. Furthermore, we introduce the Semantic SVG Benchmark with human-annotated semantic groups and novel sub-component metrics (Semantic Recall/Precision, PERE) to explicitly evaluate structural compositionality and functional editability. Experiments show that our natively predicted structures surpass the upper bounds of existing flat-generation methods in both grouping quality and editability, while maintaining state-of-the-art visual fidelity.

Large language model (LLM) unlearning has emerged as a crucial post-hoc mechanism for privacy protection and AI safety, yet auditing whether target knowledge is truly erased remains challenging. Existing output-level metrics fail to detect when this knowledge remains recoverable from internal representations. Recent white-box studies reveal such residual knowledge but often rely on auxiliary training or dataset-specific adaptations, leaving no generalizable metric. We close this gap with the Unlearning Depth Score (UDS), a metric that quantifies the mechanistic depth of unlearning via activation patching. UDS first identifies layers that encode the target knowledge using a retain model baseline, then measures how much of it is erased in the unlearned model on a 0-1 scale. In a meta-evaluation across 20 metrics on 150 unlearned models spanning 8 methods, UDS achieves the highest faithfulness and robustness, confirming our causal approach as the most reliable for unlearning evaluation. Case studies further show that UDS uncovers residual knowledge obscured from observational metrics by representational shifts, with erasure depth varying across prompt types. We provide guidelines for integrating UDS into existing benchmarking frameworks and streamlining the evaluation pipeline.

Word embedding is considered an essential factor in improving the performance of various Natural Language Processing (NLP) models. However, it is hardly applicable in real-world datasets as word embedding is generally studied with a well-refined corpus. Notably, in Hangeul (Korean writing system), which has a unique writing system, various kinds of Out-Of-Vocabulary (OOV) appear from typos. In this paper, we propose a robust Hangeul word embedding model against typos, while maintaining high performance. The proposed model utilizes a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture with a channel attention mechanism that learns to infer the original word embeddings. The model train with a dataset that consists of a mix of typos and correct words. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model, we conduct three kinds of intrinsic and extrinsic tasks. While the existing embedding models fail to maintain stable performance as the noise level increases, the proposed model shows stable performance.
