ARC: A Tool to Rate AI Systems for Bias Through a Causal Lens | 2024 Trusted AI

As Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are becoming powerful, there is a growing concern about these data-driven systems with respect to trust issues like exhibiting biasing which may adversely impact their large-scale adoption. Here bias may be with respect to protected attributes such as well-studied gender, race, and age. In this paper, we introduce ARC, a tool to rate AI systems for bias through a causal lens. The main objective of the tool is to assist developers in building better models and aid end-users in making informed decisions based on the available data. The tool is extensible and currently supports three different AI tasks: binary classification ,sentiment analysis, and group recommendation. It gives users the option of choosing data for a task and rating AI systems for bias with respect to different protected attributes present in the data. The rating method is system-independent and the ratings given by the algorithm are causally interpretable .These ratings help the user make an informed decision based on the data in hand.

ElectionBot for South Carolina | AI Magazine 2023 Chatbots

Here, we demonstrate how a chatbot built with the SafeChat architecture and using official FAQs (questions and their answers) from South Carolina will answer to any user question. The chatbot should only answer when it is confident of the question. The chatbot can make answers consumable but will not cook up (hallucinate) new answers.

ROSE: Tool and Data ResOurces to Explore the Instability of SEntiment Analysis Systems | 2022 Data Analysis

Sentiment Analysis Systems (SASs) are data-driven Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems that assign a score conveying the sentiment and emotion intensity when a piece of text is given as input. Like other AI, and especially machine learning (ML) based systems, they have also exhibited instability in their values when inputs are perturbed with respect to gender and race, which can be interpreted as biased behavior. In this demonstration paper, we present ROSE, a resource for understanding the behavior of SAS systems with respect to gender. It consists of data consisting of input text and output sentiment scores and a visualization tool to explore the behavior of SAS. We calculated the output sentiment scores using off-the-shelf SASs and our deep-learning-based implementations based on published architectures.
