DeepBias: Adaptive In-depth Probing of Social Biases in LVLMs

Anqi Li, Jie Zhang, Zhongqi Wang +4

While Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) demonstrate remarkable capabilities, they remain highly susceptible to embedded social biases. Existing bias evaluation protocols predomi…

Textual Data Bias Detection and Mitigation -- An Extensible Pipeline with Experimental Evaluation

Rebekka Görge, Sujan Sai Gannamaneni, Tabea Naeven +10

Textual data used to train large language models (LLMs) exhibits multifaceted bias manifestations encompassing harmful language and skewed demographic distributions. Regulations su…

Diverse Human Value Alignment for Large Language Models via Ethical Reasoning

Jiahao Wang, Songkai Xue, Jinghui Li +1

Ensuring that Large Language Models (LLMs) align with the diverse and evolving human values across different regions and cultures remains a critical challenge in AI ethics. Current…

Distributionally Robust Performative Prediction

Songkai Xue, Yuekai Sun

Performative prediction aims to model scenarios where predictive outcomes subsequently influence the very systems they target. The pursuit of a performative optimum (PO) -- minimiz…

Minimax Regret Learning for Data with Heterogeneous Subgroups

Weibin Mo, Weijing Tang, Songkai Xue +2

Modern complex datasets often consist of various sub-populations with known group information. In the presence of sub-population heterogeneity, it is crucial to develop robust and…

On Uniform Consistency of Spectral Embeddings

Ruofei Zhao, Songkai Xue, Yuekai Sun

In this paper, we study the convergence of the spectral embeddings obtained from the leading eigenvectors of certain similarity matrices to their population counterparts. We opt to…

Calibrated Data-Dependent Constraints with Exact Satisfaction Guarantees

Songkai Xue, Yuekai Sun, Mikhail Yurochkin

We consider the task of training machine learning models with data-dependent constraints. Such constraints often arise as empirical versions of expected value constraints that enfo…

How does overparametrization affect performance on minority groups?

Subha Maity, Saptarshi Roy, Songkai Xue +2

The benefits of overparameterization for the overall performance of modern machine learning (ML) models are well known. However, the effect of overparameterization at a more granul…

Statistical inference for individual fairness

Subha Maity, Songkai Xue, Mikhail Yurochkin +1

As we rely on machine learning (ML) models to make more consequential decisions, the issue of ML models perpetuating or even exacerbating undesirable historical biases (e.g., gende…

Auditing ML Models for Individual Bias and Unfairness

Songkai Xue, Mikhail Yurochkin, Yuekai Sun

We consider the task of auditing ML models for individual bias/unfairness. We formalize the task in an optimization problem and develop a suite of inferential tools for the optimal…
