Homogenization in Multi-Agent Systems
Prakhar Ganesh, Kyra Wilson, Luca Zappella +4
Multi-agent systems (MAS) leverage interactions between agents to perform complex tasks. Despite their success, we show that these interactions can also lead to homogenization, i.e…
DSO: Direct Steering Optimization for Bias Mitigation
Lucas Monteiro Paes, Nivedha Sivakumar, Yinong Oliver Wang +4
Generative models are often deployed to make decisions on behalf of users, such as vision-language models (VLMs) identifying which person in a room is a doctor to help visually imp…
Bias after Prompting: Persistent Discrimination in Large Language Models
Nivedha Sivakumar, Natalie Mackraz, Samira Khorshidi +4
A dangerous assumption that can be made from prior work on the bias transfer hypothesis (BTH) is that biases do not transfer from pre-trained large language models (LLMs) to adapte…
Investigating Intersectional Bias in Large Language Models using Confidence Disparities in Coreference Resolution
Falaah Arif Khan, Nivedha Sivakumar, Yinong Oliver Wang +5
Large language models (LLMs) have achieved impressive performance, leading to their widespread adoption as decision-support tools in resource-constrained contexts like hiring and a…
Fairness Dynamics During Training
Krishna Patel, Nivedha Sivakumar, Barry-John Theobald +2
We investigate fairness dynamics during Large Language Model (LLM) training to enable the diagnoses of biases and mitigations through training interventions like early stopping; we…
Is Your Model Fairly Certain? Uncertainty-Aware Fairness Evaluation for LLMs
Yinong Oliver Wang, Nivedha Sivakumar, Falaah Arif Khan +6
The recent rapid adoption of large language models (LLMs) highlights the critical need for benchmarking their fairness. Conventional fairness metrics, which focus on discrete accur…
