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.…
InfAlign: Inference-aware language model alignment
Ananth Balashankar, Ziteng Sun, Jonathan Berant +9
Language model alignment is a critical step in training modern generative language models. Alignment targets to improve win rate of a sample from the aligned model against the base…
Inducing Group Fairness in Prompt-Based Language Model Decisions
James Atwood, Nino Scherrer, Preethi Lahoti +3
Classifiers are used throughout industry to enforce policies, ranging from the detection of toxic content to age-appropriate content filtering. While these classifiers serve import…
FRAPPE: A Group Fairness Framework for Post-Processing Everything
Alexandru Tifrea, Preethi Lahoti, Ben Packer +3
Despite achieving promising fairness-error trade-offs, in-processing mitigation techniques for group fairness cannot be employed in numerous practical applications with limited com…
Towards A Scalable Solution for Improving Multi-Group Fairness in Compositional Classification
James Atwood, Tina Tian, Ben Packer +5
Despite the rich literature on machine learning fairness, relatively little attention has been paid to remediating complex systems, where the final prediction is the combination of…
Simpson's Paradox in Recommender Fairness: Reconciling differences between per-user and aggregated evaluations
Flavien Prost, Ben Packer, Jilin Chen +9
There has been a flurry of research in recent years on notions of fairness in ranking and recommender systems, particularly on how to evaluate if a recommender allocates exposure e…
Understanding and Improving Fairness-Accuracy Trade-offs in Multi-Task Learning
Yuyan Wang, Xuezhi Wang, Alex Beutel +3
As multi-task models gain popularity in a wider range of machine learning applications, it is becoming increasingly important for practitioners to understand the fairness implicati…
Measuring Model Fairness under Noisy Covariates: A Theoretical Perspective
Flavien Prost, Pranjal Awasthi, Nick Blumm +7
In this work we study the problem of measuring the fairness of a machine learning model under noisy information. Focusing on group fairness metrics, we investigate the particular b…
Measuring Recommender System Effects with Simulated Users
Sirui Yao, Yoni Halpern, Nithum Thain +6
Imagine a food recommender system -- how would we check if it is \emph{causing} and fostering unhealthy eating habits or merely reflecting users' interests? How much of a user's ex…
Fairness without Demographics through Adversarially Reweighted Learning
Preethi Lahoti, Alex Beutel, Jilin Chen +5
Much of the previous machine learning (ML) fairness literature assumes that protected features such as race and sex are present in the dataset, and relies upon them to mitigate fai…
Toward a better trade-off between performance and fairness with kernel-based distribution matching
Flavien Prost, Hai Qian, Qiuwen Chen +3
As recent literature has demonstrated how classifiers often carry unintended biases toward some subgroups, deploying machine learned models to users demands careful consideration o…
Debiasing Embeddings for Reduced Gender Bias in Text Classification
Flavien Prost, Nithum Thain, Tolga Bolukbasi
(Bolukbasi et al., 2016) demonstrated that pretrained word embeddings can inherit gender bias from the data they were trained on. We investigate how this bias affects downstream cl…
