  • Publication number: 20250200287
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for debiasing vectorized language representations can include identifying two (or more) pairs of concepts for which debiasing is desired, computing a mean vector for each concept, determining a center point for a rotation operation to orthogonalize based on the mean vectors, and shifting the vectors to the center point before performing a rectification operation (which can be a graded rotation), after which the vectors can be shifted back from the center point. If desired, the process can be performed iteratively.
