5 results for “present-bias”
problem Present-bias impacts carbon emission patterns towards a net zero target.
method Stochastic control techniques adapted from insurance risk theory.
result Higher present-bias leads to excess emissions, and carbon taxes can reduce emissions but beyond a certain point have diminishing returns.
Study on investment strategy for agents with periodic preferences and discounting.
problem Investment decisions by agents with periodic S-shaped preferences and present bias.
method Infinite-horizon, continuous-time portfolio selection problem with quasi-hyperbolic discounting.
result Time-consistent planning strategy can be formulated as an equilibrium to a static mean field game.
Presentation bias is one of the key challenges when learning from implicit feedback in search engines, as it confounds the relevance signal with uninformative signals due to position in the ranking, saliency, and other presentation factors. While it was recently shown how counterfactual learning-to-rank (LTR) approache…
Algorithm learns fair ranking from biased data.
problem Unfair ranking policies from biased implicit feedback.
method Policy-gradient approach with amortized fairness constraints.
result Efficient algorithm FULTR learns fair policies.
This study analyzes bias in face generation models and proposes mitigation techniques.
problem Bias in face generation models that may misrepresent certain social groups.
method Three approaches: generators, attribute modifier, and post-processing bias mitigators.
result Generators suffer from bias across all social groups, while post-processing mitigators show different feature concentration.
