Fairness has become an arising concern in machine learning with its prevalence in decision-making processes, and the trade-offs between various fairness notions and between fairness and accuracy has been empirically observed. However, the inheritance of such trade-offs, as well as the quantification…
Multi-task learning (MTL) is a paradigm that aims to improve the generalization of models by simultaneously learning multiple related tasks, leveraging shared representations and task-specific information to enhance performance on individual tasks. However, existing work has shown that MTL can poten…
Multimodal models or Vision Language Models (VLMs) have reshaped the paradigm in machine learning, offering zero-shot capabilities that require no additional training when adapted to new classification tasks. However, despite their advancements, spurious correlations still exist in VLMs. Existing ap…
Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) models exhibit intriguing properties, particularly in their zero-shot classification capability. However, the reliability of CLIP zero-shot classification is severely undermined by spurious correlations. Existing efforts to enhance the robustness of zer…
Although transformers demonstrate impressive capabilities in a variety of tasks, the fairness issue remains a significant concern when deploying these models. Existing works to address fairness issues in transformers require sensitive labels (such as age, gender, etc.), which can raise privacy conce…
