The Bias is in the Details: An Assessment of Cognitive Bias in LLMs

R. Alexander Knipper, Charles S. Knipper, Kaiqi Zhang +3

As Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly embedded in real-world decision-making processes, it becomes crucial to examine the extent to which they exhibit cognitive biases.…

Seed-Free Synthetic Data Generation Framework for Instruction-Tuning LLMs: A Case Study in Thai

Parinthapat Pengpun, Can Udomcharoenchaikit, Weerayut Buaphet +1

We present a synthetic data approach for instruction-tuning large language models (LLMs) for low-resource languages in a data-efficient manner, specifically focusing on Thai. We id…

Mitigating Extrinsic Gender Bias for Bangla Classification Tasks

Sajib Kumar Saha Joy, Arman Hassan Mahy, Meherin Sultana +4

In this study, we investigate extrinsic gender bias in Bangla pretrained language models, a largely underexplored area in low-resource languages. To assess this bias, we construct…

Evaluating the Impact of Model Scale for Compositional Generalization in Semantic Parsing

Linlu Qiu, Peter Shaw, Panupong Pasupat +5

Despite their strong performance on many tasks, pre-trained language models have been shown to struggle on out-of-distribution compositional generalization. Meanwhile, recent work…

Measuring and Reducing Gendered Correlations in Pre-trained Models

Kellie Webster, Xuezhi Wang, Ian Tenney +6

Pre-trained models have revolutionized natural language understanding. However, researchers have found they can encode artifacts undesired in many applications, such as professions…

Scalable Cross Lingual Pivots to Model Pronoun Gender for Translation

Kellie Webster, Emily Pitler

Machine translation systems with inadequate document understanding can make errors when translating dropped or neutral pronouns into languages with gendered pronouns (e.g., English…

Syntactic Data Augmentation Increases Robustness to Inference Heuristics

Junghyun Min, R. Thomas McCoy, Dipanjan Das +2

Pretrained neural models such as BERT, when fine-tuned to perform natural language inference (NLI), often show high accuracy on standard datasets, but display a surprising lack of…

New Protocols and Negative Results for Textual Entailment Data Collection

Samuel R. Bowman, Jennimaria Palomaki, Livio Baldini Soares +1

Natural language inference (NLI) data has proven useful in benchmarking and, especially, as pretraining data for tasks requiring language understanding. However, the crowdsourcing…

Giving BERT a Calculator: Finding Operations and Arguments with Reading Comprehension

Daniel Andor, Luheng He, Kenton Lee +1

Reading comprehension models have been successfully applied to extractive text answers, but it is unclear how best to generalize these models to abstractive numerical answers. We e…

Synthetic QA Corpora Generation with Roundtrip Consistency

Chris Alberti, Daniel Andor, Emily Pitler +2

We introduce a novel method of generating synthetic question answering corpora by combining models of question generation and answer extraction, and by filtering the results to ens…

Natural Language Processing with Small Feed-Forward Networks

Jan A. Botha, Emily Pitler, Ji Ma +5

We show that small and shallow feed-forward neural networks can achieve near state-of-the-art results on a range of unstructured and structured language processing tasks while bein…
