Evaluating Gender Bias Transfer between Pre-trained and Prompt-Adapted Language Models

*Equal Contributors Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly being adapted to achieve task-specificity for deployment in real-world decision systems. Several previous works have investigated the bias transfer hypothesis (BTH) by studying the effect of the fine-tuning adaptation strategy on model fairness to find that fairness in pre-trained masked language models have limited effect on the …

Google Cloud and Swift pioneer advanced AI and federated learning tech to help combat payments fraud

Conventional fraud detection methods have a hard time keeping up with increasingly sophisticated criminal tactics. Existing systems often rely on the limited data of individual institutions, and this hinders the detection of intricate schemes that span multiple banks and jurisdictions.  To better combat fraud in cross-border payments, Swift, the global provider of secure financial messaging …

Momentum Approximation in Asynchronous Private Federated Learning

This paper was accepted for presentation at the International Workshop on Federated Foundation Models (FL@FM-NeurIPS’24), held in conjunction with NeurIPS 2024. Asynchronous protocols have been shown to improve the scalability of federated learning (FL) with a massive number of clients. Meanwhile, momentum-based methods can achieve the best model quality in synchronous FL. However, naively applying …
