Solution Overview

Problem

Existing technologies struggle to reliably and automatically detect and mitigate bias in textual content, particularly in internal and external documents of organizations, failing to address various forms of bias such as gender, age, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status.

Innovation Solution

A machine learning model framework, comprising a bias detection model and a bias mitigation model, is used to identify biasing terms, generate candidate bias mitigation insights, and update documents using an interactive user interface, leveraging a pre-trained large language foundation model fine-tuned with a labeled bias dataset.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional bias detection techniques are used, then the system is simple to implement, but the detection reliability and measurement precision are insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebias detection reliabilityVSAvoidmodel framework complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the bias detection task into multiple specialized models: a bias detection model for identifying biased terms, a bias classification model for categorizing bias types, and a bias mitigation model for generating corrections. This segmentation allows each model to specialize in specific aspects of bias detection, improving overall reliability while managing complexity through modular architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an interactive graphical user interface as an intermediary between the automated detection system and human users. This intermediary allows users to review, validate, and refine bias detection results, thereby enhancing detection reliability through human-in-the-loop validation while maintaining system manageability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If automated machine learning models are deployed, then productivity and automation extent improve, but the ability to detect and measure bias accurately becomes more difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebias detection efficiencyVSAvoidbias measurement accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-training the bias detection model on extensive datasets containing labeled biased and non-biased text examples. This preliminary training equips the automated model with accurate bias detection capabilities before deployment, enabling high productivity while maintaining measurement accuracy through pre-established knowledge bases.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback mechanisms where user interactions with the graphical interface (accepting, rejecting, or modifying bias corrections) are fed back to continuously refine and retrain the machine learning models. This feedback loop improves bias measurement accuracy over time while maintaining automated high-speed detection capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Adaptability or versatility

If comprehensive bias categories are monitored, then the coverage of bias detection improves, but the device complexity and data processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebias category coverageVSAvoidsystem architecture complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The bias detection model is designed as a universal system that can detect multiple types of bias (gender, race, age, socioeconomic status, etc.) through a single integrated architecture. The model processes text data through common pipelines (tokenization, embedding, classification) while adapting to different bias categories, achieving comprehensive coverage without proportionally increasing system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide bias resolution modeling techniques for automatically detecting biasing terms and generating and presenting candidate bias mitigation insights for potential replacement of such biasing terms. In an example embodiment, a bias resolution system receives a document comprising textual data, performs, using one or more machine learning models, a tokenization operation based at least in part on the textual data; identifies, using the one or more machine learning models, one or more biasing terms based at least in part on the tokenized textual data, generates, using the one or more machine learning models, one or more candidate bias mitigation insights, wherein (i) the one or more candidate bias mitigation insights correspond to the one or more biasing terms, and (ii) at least one of the one or more machine learning models is a pre-trained large language foundation model fine-tuned using a tokenized dataset with labeled biases (DLB) comprising a plurality of tokens that correspond to one or more bias classification labels, and outputs through an interactive user interface component, a presentation of at least the one or more candidate bias mitigation insights to a user. These insights and bias metrics may be dynamically surfaced or exposed to a user via improved user interfaces and user interface components.
