Transformer language models are increasingly used as software components, yet biased outputs remain difficult to localize and repair inside the model. Existing fairness testing and repair methods largely operate at the input-output or retraining level, while recent work suggests that bias-related behavior can concentrate in a small set of attention heads.
arXiv:2606. 27449v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-head attention conventionally partitions the hidden dimension equally across all heads at every layer, enforcing an identical representational subspace dimension (dh = dmodel/h) throughout the models depth.

arXiv:2606. 19150v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The remarkable success of Transformer-based models in natural language processing stems from architectural scaling, which leads to a large number of parameters and hinders deployment in resource-constrained environments.

arXiv:2604. 22583v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multi-head attention enables Transformers to capture diverse representations, but all attention heads are typically activated for every input, regardless of task complexity.
While Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) demonstrate remarkable capabilities, they remain highly susceptible to embedded social biases. Existing bias evaluation protocols predominantly rely on static datasets, which provide only a superficial assessment, as their fixed test cases cannot adaptively evolve to measure the true depth and limits of model vulnerabilities.
