Researchers have introduced a new metric called Directional Bias Amplification in Captioning (DBAC) to measure and identify how image captioning models worsen biases present in their training data. Unlike previous metrics, DBAC is designed to understand the nuances of language in captions and pinpoint the sources of bias amplification. Experiments using the COCO captions dataset demonstrated DBAC's effectiveness in assessing gender and race biases, offering a more accurate estimation than existing methods. AI
