Large language models (LLMs) can reveal and amplify societal biases during chain-of-thought (CoT) generation. We present COFT (Chain of Fair Thought), a training-free decoding method that applies token-level fairness control at decode time, with distribution-free marginal validity guarantees (under …
We present Proof-of-Perception (PoP), a tool-using framework that casts multimodal reasoning as an executable graph with explicit reliability guarantees. Each perception or logic node outputs a conformal set \Gamma^ (t) _\delta(x), yielding calibrated, stepwise uncertainty; a lightweight controller
Ensuring fairness is essential for ethical decision-making in various domains. Informally, a neural network is considered fair if and only if it treats similar individuals similarly in a given task. We introduce FaVeR (Fairness Verification and Repair), a framework for efficiently verifying and repa
We propose FACTER, a fairness-aware framework for LLM-based recommendation systems that integrates conformal prediction with dynamic prompt engineering. By introducing an adaptive semantic variance threshold and a violation-triggered mechanism, FACTER automatically tightens fairness constraints when…
