Proposes CBCM for diffusion-based spurious attribute mining and DCD for cross-projection debiasing, claiming SOTA worst-group accuracy on four benchmarks while tuning at most 0.22% of parameters.
Proposes memorization-guided two-stage scoring to select debiased training subsets, enabling ERM models to achieve better performance than SOTA debiasing techniques using only 10% of data.
Introduces MOOD benchmark for OOD LLM alignment failures and shows guard models plus Mahalanobis and perplexity OOD detectors improve recall from 39% to 45% with positive scaling.
DeconDTN-Toolkit simulates provenance shifts to expose ERM vulnerabilities and provides tools plus a robust OOD indicator for mitigating confounding by data provenance.
Characterizes spurious correlation mechanisms in preference optimization via mean spurious bias and causal-spurious correlation leakage, demonstrates irreducible vulnerability to distribution shift, and introduces tie training as selective mitigation with validation on log-linear models and empirica
Exploiting linear structure in VLM embeddings, a synthetic-data pre-training method yields background-invariant representations that exceed 90% worst-group accuracy on Waterbirds even under 100% spurious correlation with no minority examples in training.
Benchmark shows that combining data rebalancing with feature disentanglement mitigates shortcut learning more effectively than rebalancing alone in medical imaging models.
Sparse feature circuits are introduced as interpretable causal subnetworks in language models, supporting unsupervised discovery of thousands of circuits and a method called SHIFT to improve classifier generalization by ablating irrelevant features.
A multimodal fusion plus gradient-reversal unlearning framework improves MCI classification accuracy and reduces performance gaps across sex and language subgroups on TAUKADIAL and PREPARE.
