Recent studies have shown that word embeddings exhibit gender bias inherited from the training corpora. However, most studies to date have focused on quantifying and mitigating such bias only in English. These analyses cannot be directly extended to languages that exhibit morphological agreement on gender, such as Spanish and French. In this paper, we propose new metrics for evaluating gender bias in word embeddings of these languages and further demonstrate evidence of gender bias in bilingual embeddings which align these languages with English. Finally, we extend an existing approach to mitigate gender bias in word embeddings under both monolingual and bilingual settings. Experiments on modified Word Embedding Association Test, word similarity, word translation, and word pair translation tasks show that the proposed approaches effectively reduce the gender bias while preserving the utility of the embeddings.

该研究提出了一种新的度量标准来评估西班牙语和法语等语言中的词嵌入性别偏见，并进一步证明了双语词嵌入与英文词嵌入存在性别偏见的一致性。同时作者还提供了一种新的方法用于缓解这种偏见。实验结果表明这些方法有效地减少了性别偏见，同时也保持了嵌入向量的实用性。
