AEGIS: Awareness-Enhanced Guidance for Iterative Safeguard
Span-level rationales are often assumed to improve controllability in text detoxification, but it remains unclear when such guidance helps and when it introduces trade-offs. We present Awareness-Enhanced Guidance for Iterative Safeguard (AEGIS) as an exploratory framework for studying span-guided multilingual detoxification across English, Mandarin Chinese, and Korean. AEGIS combines span-level detector outputs with frozen generator backbones, allowing harmful spans, intensity labels, and target attributes to be provided as structured guidance during rewriting. Rather than claiming state-of-the-art detoxification performance, we analyze how span guidance affects the balance between toxici...
