Retrieval-augmented language models can fail to respect negative constraints when the retriever supplies evidence about concepts the user explicitly excluded. Beyond explicit negation, queries may ask for answers that include one concept while excluding another, or for entities that belong to a category but differ from a closely related instance. Because the excluded concept still appears in the query text, dense retrievers may assign high similarity to documents about that concept even when the user asks to avoid it. We introduce E-SENS, a training-free reranking method for negation-sensitive retrieval. E-SENS extracts a compact trap query for the excluded side and subtracts trap-query similarity from the original-query retrieval score. On ExcluIR, E-SENS shows a clear recall-violation trade-off across four embedding models and reduces trap retrieval at recall-preserving settings.

Language detoxification involves removing toxicity from offensive language. While a neutral-toxic paired dataset provides a straightforward approach for training detoxification models, creating such datasets presents several challenges: i) the need for human annotation to build paired data, and ii) the rapid evolution of offensive terms, rendering static datasets quickly outdated. To tackle these challenges, we introduce an automated paired data generation pipeline, called K/DA. This pipeline is designed to generate offensive language with implicit offensiveness and trend-aligned slang, making the resulting dataset suitable for detoxification model training. We demonstrate that the dataset generated by K/DA exhibits high pair consistency and greater implicit offensiveness compared to existing Korean datasets, and also demonstrates applicability to other languages. Furthermore, it enables effective training of a high-performing detoxification model with simple instruction fine-tuning.
