DPA: A one-stop metric to measure bias amplification in classification datasets
Published in NeurIPS, 2025
Most ML datasets today contain biases. When we train models on these datasets, they often not only learn these biases but can worsen them — a phenomenon known as bias amplification. We propose a better metric to measure bias amplification.

A Woman with a Knife or A Knife with a Woman? Measuring Directional Bias Amplification in Image Captions
Published in WACV, 2026
Bias amplification for image captioning is different than classification. Impact of context of words in a sentence is missed by conventional bias amplification metrics. Metrics defined for image captioning are do not capture directionality and confound the source of biases. We propose a new metric that fixes these limitations.
