arXiv:2511. 03304v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: With the on-going integration of machine learning systems into the everyday social life of millions the notion of fairness becomes an ever increasing priority in their development.
arXiv:2604. 16610v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Machine learning models often inherit biases from historical data, raising critical concerns about fairness and accountability.
FairLRF proposes a fairness-oriented low rank factorization framework that uses singular value decomposition (SVD) to improve deep learning model fairness. By selectively removing bias-inducing elements from the unitary matrices obtained via SVD, the method reduces group disparities while preserving accuracy. Experiments demonstrate that FairLRF outperforms existing low rank factorization and state-of-the-art fairness techniques, and an ablation study explores the impact of key hyper-parameters.
arXiv:2606. 00656v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Ensuring fair and equitable treatment across diverse groups, particularly in multi-class classification tasks, poses a significant challenge due to the persistent biases inherent in machine learning models.
FairNVT is a lightweight debiasing framework that injects calibrated Gaussian noise into sensitive embeddings learned by adapters for pretrained transformer-based encoders. By reducing sensitive-attribute leakage through orthogonality constraints and fairness regularization, it improves fairness metrics such as demographic parity difference and equalized odds while maintaining competitive task performance across vision and language datasets.
arXiv:2604. 27011v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: AutoML, intended as the process of automating the application of machine learning to real-world problems, is a key step for AI popularisation.
arXiv:2607. 05098v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: When sensitive attributes are continuous and high-dimensional $-$ demographic score vectors, posteriors over attributes, age or income profiles $-$ enforcing full statistical independence is often too restrictive, and existing relaxations rely on indirect dependence penalties or adversarial schemes that do not directly target the fairness-accuracy trade-off.
arXiv:2608. 19381v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Network embedding methods learn low-dimensional representations of graph-structured data to support downstream tasks such as node classification, link prediction, and influence maximization.
arXiv:2608. 14211v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Tabular Foundation Models (TFMs) have emerged as leading methods for tabular predictive tasks, leveraging in-context learning to predict on new data without task-specific training.
arXiv:2606. 20461v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning models have been shown to exhibit discriminatory outcomes or degraded performance for individuals at the intersection of multiple sensitive attributes, such as race and gender.
arXiv:2503.05684v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Pre-trained foundation models can be efficiently adapted for specific tasks using Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA), but the fairness properties of...
arXiv:2509. 16462v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used in high-stakes decision-making systems, where biased predictions can reinforce social and economic disparities.
arXiv:2605. 23145v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Individual fairness, the notion that "similar individuals should be treated similarly," provides a strong and flexible fairness guarantee for algorithmic decision makers.
