FIND: human-in-the-loop debugging deep text classifiers

P Lertvittayakumjorn, L Specia, F Toni - arXiv preprint arXiv:2010.04987, 2020 - arxiv.org
Since obtaining a perfect training dataset (ie, a dataset which is considerably large,
unbiased, and well-representative of unseen cases) is hardly possible, many real-world text …

Controllable guarantees for fair outcomes via contrastive information estimation

U Gupta, AM Ferber, B Dilkina… - Proceedings of the AAAI …, 2021 - ojs.aaai.org
