Exploring Gender Bias Beyond Occupational Titles
Not on the map. Why?
Abstract (arXiv)
In this work, we investigate the correlation between gender and contextual biases, focusing on elements such as action verbs, object nouns, and particularly on occupations. We introduce a novel dataset, GenderLexicon, and a framework that can estimate contextual bias and its related gender bias. Our model can interpret the bias with a score and thus improve the explainability of gender bias. Also, our findings confirm the existence of gender biases beyond occupational stereotypes. To validate our approach and demonstrate its effectiveness, we conduct evaluations on five diverse datasets, including a Japanese dataset.
