Responsible AI
Through Causal Reasoning

Fairness Intelligence is a research group at SkywardAI Labs dedicated to understanding and mitigating bias in large language models using causal methods. We bridge explainable AI and causal inference to build more trustworthy, accountable AI systems.

Our research spans three tiers of model access — black-box APIs, open-weight architectures, and multi-agent agentic systems — developing unified causal principles that apply across all levels of complexity.

We publish at top-tier venues (CORE A*, A, IEEE Q1) and are committed to open, transparent research that promotes safer AI deployment in high-stakes domains such as healthcare, hiring, education, and public information systems.

Framework Walkthroughs

Each project below is a self-contained, static HTML page that walks through the framework pipeline — one is a live playground, the rest are read-only worked examples using illustrative data. Where a project has an accompanying paper, its venue and tier are shown alongside.

Live Demo CORE A

ACPS — Adaptive Causal Prompting with Sketch-of-Thought

Generates multiple reasoning paths, estimates each path's causal effect via front-door adjustment, and casts a causal-weighted vote for the final answer. Run it directly.
