Breaking Bad Tokens: Detoxification of LLMs Using Sparse Autoencoders

EMNLP 2025

Large language models (LLMs) are now ubiquitous in user-facing applications, yet they still generate undesirable toxic outputs, including profanity, vulgarity, and derogatory remarks. Although numerous detoxification methods exist, most apply broad, surface-level fixes and can therefore easily be ci

MoMoE: Mixture of Moderation Experts Framework for AI-Assisted Online Governance

EMNLP 2025

Large language models (LLMs) have shown great potential in flagging harmful content in online communities. Yet, existing approaches for moderation require a separate model for every community and are opaque in their decision-making, limiting real-world adoption. We introduce Mixture of Moderation Ex

SLM-Mod: Small Language Models Surpass LLMs at Content Moderation

NAACL 2025long

Large language models (LLMs) have shown promise in many natural language understanding tasks, including content moderation. However, these models can be expensive to query in real-time and do not allow for a community-specific approach to content moderation. To address these challenges, we explore t…

Beyond Demographics: Aligning Role-playing LLM-based Agents Using Human Belief Networks

EMNLP 2024finding

Creating human-like large language model (LLM) agents is crucial for faithful social simulation. Having LLMs role-play based on demographic information sometimes improves human likeness but often does not. This study assessed whether LLM alignment with human behavior can be improved by integrating i…

Simulating Opinion Dynamics with Networks of LLM-based Agents

NAACL 2024findings

Accurately simulating human opinion dynamics is crucial for understanding a variety of societal phenomena, including polarization and the spread of misinformation. However, the agent-based models (ABMs) commonly used for such simulations often over-simplify human behavior. We propose a new approach…
