Off-Policy Evaluation for Ranking Policies under Deterministic Logging Policies

ICLR 2026poster

Off-Policy Evaluation (OPE) is an important practical problem in algorithmic ranking systems, where the goal is to estimate the expected performance of a new ranking policy using only offline logged data collected under a different, logging policy. Existing estimators, such as the ranking-wise and p…

Bias Analysis and Mitigation through Protected Attribute Detection and Regard Classification

EMNLP 2025

Large language models (LLMs) acquire general linguistic knowledge from massive-scale pretraining. However, pretraining data mainly comprised of web-crawled texts contain undesirable social biases which can be perpetuated or even amplified by LLMs. In this study, we propose an efficient yet effective

INDUS: Effective and Efficient Language Models for Scientific Applications

EMNLP 2024industry

Large language models (LLMs) trained on general domain corpora showed remarkable results on natural language processing (NLP) tasks. However, previous research demonstrated LLMs trained using domain-focused corpora perform better on specialized tasks. Inspired by this insight, we developed INDUS, a…

Multiple Representation Transfer from Large Language Models to End-to-End ASR Systems

ICASSP 2024accepted

Transferring the knowledge of large language models (LLMs) is a promising technique to incorporate linguistic knowledge into end-to-end automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. However, existing works only transfer a single representation of LLM (e.g. the last layer of pretrained BERT), while the…

Robust ASR Error Correction with Conservative Data Filtering

EMNLP 2024industry

Error correction (EC) based on large language models is an emerging technology to enhance the performance of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems.Generally, training data for EC are collected by automatically pairing a large set of ASR hypotheses (as sources) and their gold references (as targ…

Policy-Adaptive Estimator Selection for Off-Policy Evaluation

AAAI 2023technical

Off-policy evaluation (OPE) aims to accurately evaluate the performance of counterfactual policies using only offline logged data. Although many estimators have been developed, there is no single estimator that dominates the others, because the estimators' accuracy can vary greatly depending on a gi…
