Mind the Gap: A Causal Perspective on Bias Amplification in Prediction & Decision-Making

no code implementations24 May 2024 Drago Plecko, Elias Bareinboim

For instance, if commonly used criteria, such as independence or sufficiency, are satisfied for a prediction score $S$ used for binary classification, they need not be satisfied after an application of a simple thresholding operation on $S$ (as commonly used in practice).

Fairness-Accuracy Trade-Offs: A Causal Perspective

no code implementations24 May 2024 Drago Plecko, Elias Bareinboim

Thus, we introduce a quantity that summarizes the fairness-utility trade-off, called the causal fairness/utility ratio, defined as the ratio of the reduction in discrimination vs. the excess loss from constraining a causal pathway.

Fair Clustering: A Causal Perspective

1 code implementation14 Dec 2023 Fritz Bayer, Drago Plecko, Niko Beerenwinkel, Jack Kuipers

Our approach enables the specification of the causal fairness metrics that should be minimised.

Reconciling Predictive and Statistical Parity: A Causal Approach

no code implementations8 Jun 2023 Drago Plecko, Elias Bareinboim

Since the rise of fair machine learning as a critical field of inquiry, many different notions on how to quantify and measure discrimination have been proposed in the literature.

Causal Fairness Analysis

no code implementations23 Jul 2022 Drago Plecko, Elias Bareinboim

The main insight of our approach will be to link the quantification of the disparities present on the observed data with the underlying, and often unobserved, collection of causal mechanisms that generate the disparity in the first place, challenge we call the Fundamental Problem of Causal Fairness Analysis (FPCFA).
