Abstract

We present an empirical study of gender bias in coreference resolution systems. We first introduce a novel, Winograd schema-style set of minimal pair sentences that differ only by pronoun gender. With these "Winogender schemas," we evaluate and confirm systematic gender bias in three publicly-available coreference resolution systems, and correlate this bias with real-world and textual gender statistics.

    • There are all sorts. You do have to be specific about what you mean by “bias” though. https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.08193 and https://arxiv.org/abs/1804.09301 and https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.04615 …
