ViD: Vision-Dominant Gender Bias Mitigation for Large Vision-Language Models
The paper introduces ViD, a vision‑dominant gender bias mitigation framework for large vision‑language models. ViD uses causal analysis of attention patterns and dual mechanisms—backdoor adjustment and refined token selection—to suppress bias while preserving reasoning and generation quality. Experiments show a 14.7% reduction in gender bias on FACET and significant improvements on MS COCO image captioning, all without extra training overhead.

Gender Bias in Vision-Language In-Context Learning
The paper investigates how in‑context learning (ICL) in large vision‑language models (LVLMs) can amplify gender bias. Using the VL‑BICLE framework, the authors show that gendered ICL demonstrations shift model bias toward the demonstrated gender, especially in tasks involving gendered language such as image captioning and pronoun prediction. They find that similarity‑based retrieval does not mitigate this bias and that replacing real images with synthetic ones from stable diffusion reduces bias without hurting caption quality.
