Gender Bias in Word Embeddings: A Comprehensive Analysis of Frequency, Syntax, and Semantics

no code implementations7 Jun 2022 Aylin Caliskan, Pimparkar Parth Ajay, Tessa Charlesworth, Robert Wolfe, Mahzarin R. Banaji

Using the Single-Category Word Embedding Association Test, we demonstrate the widespread prevalence of gender biases that also show differences in: (1) frequencies of words associated with men versus women; (b) part-of-speech tags in gender-associated words; (c) semantic categories in gender-associated words; and (d) valence, arousal, and dominance in gender-associated words.

Evidence for Hypodescent in Visual Semantic AI

1 code implementation22 May 2022 Robert Wolfe, Mahzarin R. Banaji, Aylin Caliskan

We examine the state-of-the-art multimodal "visual semantic" model CLIP ("Contrastive Language Image Pretraining") for the rule of hypodescent, or one-drop rule, whereby multiracial people are more likely to be assigned a racial or ethnic label corresponding to a minority or disadvantaged racial or ethnic group than to the equivalent majority or advantaged group.
