Mitigating Label Bias with Interpretable Rubric Embeddings

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2605.21455v1 Announce Type: new Statistical decision algorithms are increasingly deployed in domains where ground-truth labels are hard to obtain, such as hiring, university admissions, and content moderation. In these settings, models are typically trained on historical human evaluations -- for example, using past hiring decisions as a proxy for true applicant quality. However, if past evaluations unjustly favor certain groups, models trained on these labels may inherit those biases.
