DISCA converts within-country disagreement among World Values Survey personas into a bounded logit correction that reduces cultural misalignment by 10-24% on MultiTP for models 3.8B and larger across 20 countries, without any weight updates.
Align-Cultura introduces the CULTURAX dataset and shows that culturally fine-tuned LLMs improve joint HHH scores by 4-6%, cut cultural failures by 18%, and gain 10-12% efficiency with minimal leakage.
