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.
