Can we measure the tendency of an Information Retrieval (IR) system to reinforce gender stereotypes in its users? In this abstract, we define the construct of Gender Stereotype Reinforcement (GSR) in the context of IR and propose a measure for it based on Word Embeddings. We briefly discuss the validity of our measure and summarize our experiments on different families of IR systems.

Abstract
Can we measure the tendency of an Information Retrieval (IR) system to reinforce gender stereotypes in its users? In this abstract, we define the construct of Gender Stereotype Reinforcement (GSR) in the context of IR and propose a measure for it based on Word Embeddings. We briefly discuss the validity of our measure and summarize our experiments on different families of IR systems.File in questo prodotto:
