Tuning Derivatives for Causal Fairness in Machine Learning

arXiv:2605. 05882v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Artificial-intelligence systems are becoming ubiquitous in society, yet their predictions typically inherit biases with respect to protected attributes such as race, gender, or age.

Let's Unlearn Stereotypes Before Decision-Making: Assessing the Impact of Intrinsic Bias Mitigation on Downstream Fairness in LLMs

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.

Fairness Invariants: A Relational Approach to Explaining and Mitigating Fairness Bugs

The paper introduces REMI, a framework that treats counterfactual fairness as a relational invariant discovery problem. By learning over paired examples, REMI identifies input regions where fairness is violated and generates interpretable rule-based models—fairness invariants—that can block or relabel unfair predictions without retraining the underlying model. Experiments on symbolic and neural network programs show REMI localizes fairness bugs in over 83% of cases and reduces discriminatory decisions in black-box models by up to 70%.

FairLMs: A Turnkey Library for Fairness in Language Models

FairLMs is a Python library designed to streamline fairness research in language models by unifying bias measurement, mitigation, and evaluation evidence. It offers 33 intrinsic and extrinsic metrics, 14 mitigation components across four intervention categories, 14 diagnostic tools, adapters for major Transformer architectures and hosted APIs, and benchmark loaders. The library enforces explicit declarations of model capabilities and input requirements, ensuring compatibility and reproducibility across components and datasets.
