Fine-tuning LLMs with Cross-Attention-based Weight Decay for Bias Mitigation

EMNLP 2025

Large Language Models (LLMs) excel in Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks but often propagate societal biases from their training data, leading to discriminatory outputs. These biases are amplified by the models’ self-attention mechanisms, which disproportionately emphasize biased correlations w

Discovering and Mitigating Indirect Bias in Attention-Based Model Explanations

NAACL 2024findings

As the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) increasingly adopts transformer-based models, the issue of bias becomes more pronounced. Such bias, manifesting through stereotypes and discriminatory practices, can disadvantage certain groups. Our study focuses on direct and indirect bias in the mo…
