The paper proposes a fairness-aware Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) framework that tackles routing-induced bias by applying subgroup reweighting to correct data imbalance and gate entropy regularization to prevent the gating network from collapsing onto subgroup attributes. This end-to-end approach keeps expert utilization balanced and interpretable, offering a clear view of how subgroups are allocated across experts. Experiments show that the method improves fairness while maintaining competitive predictive performance.

The paper introduces a method called Debias Anything that jointly addresses fairness and diversity in diffusion models without requiring sensitive-attribute annotations. By connecting a frozen diffusion model to a pretrained vision-language embedding space via an adapter, the approach uses pairs of text prompts to guide batch composition toward desired attribute proportions and employs a disagreement score to promote diversity. The method is applicable to both unconditional and text-conditional diffusion models and demonstrates improved quality and diversity while maintaining comparable fairness levels in experiments.
