A burden shared is a burden halved: A fairness-adjusted approach to classification
We investigate fairness in classification, where automated decisions are made for
individuals from different protected groups. In high-consequence scenarios, decision errors …

Beyond reasonable doubt: Improving fairness in budget-constrained decision making using confidence thresholds
Prior work on fairness in machine learning has focused on settings where all the information
needed about each individual is readily available. However, in many applications, further …

Getfair: Generalized fairness tuning of classification models
We present GetFair, a novel framework for tuning fairness of classification models. The fair
classification problem deals with training models for a given classification task where data …

A new framework to assess the individual fairness of probabilistic classifiers
Fairness in machine learning has become a global concern due to the predominance of ML
in automated decision-making systems. In comparison to group fairness, individual fairness …

Addressing fairness in classification with a model-agnostic multi-objective algorithm
K Padh, D Antognini, E Lejal-Glaude… - Uncertainty in …, 2021 - proceedings.mlr.press
The goal of fairness in classification is to learn a classifier that does not discriminate against
groups of individuals based on sensitive attributes, such as race and gender. One approach …

Learning fair and transferable representations with theoretical guarantees
Developing learning methods which do not discriminate subgroups in the population is the
central goal of algorithmic fairness. One way to reach this goal is by modifying the data …
