Fair-SSL: Building fair ML Software with less data

1 code implementation3 Nov 2021 Joymallya Chakraborty, Suvodeep Majumder, Huy Tu

Semi-supervised learning is a machine learning technique where, incrementally, labeled data is used to generate pseudo-labels for the rest of the data (and then all that data is used for model training).

Fair Enough: Searching for Sufficient Measures of Fairness

1 code implementation25 Oct 2021 Suvodeep Majumder, Joymallya Chakraborty, Gina R. Bai, Kathryn T. Stolee, Tim Menzies

In summary, to simplify the fairness testing problem, we recommend the following steps: (1)~determine what type of fairness is desirable (and we offer a handful of such types); then (2) lookup those types in our clusters; then (3) just test for one item per cluster.

FairMask: Better Fairness via Model-based Rebalancing of Protected Attributes

no code implementations3 Oct 2021 Kewen Peng, Joymallya Chakraborty, Tim Menzies

Our approach aims to offset the biased predictions of the classification model via rebalancing the distribution of protected attributes.

FairBalance: How to Achieve Equalized Odds With Data Pre-processing

1 code implementation17 Jul 2021 Zhe Yu, Joymallya Chakraborty, Tim Menzies

We found that equalizing the class distribution in each demographic group with sample weights is a necessary condition for achieving equalized odds without modifying the normal training process.

Bias in Machine Learning Software: Why? How? What to do?

2 code implementations25 May 2021 Joymallya Chakraborty, Suvodeep Majumder, Tim Menzies

This paper postulates that the root causes of bias are the prior decisions that affect- (a) what data was selected and (b) the labels assigned to those examples.

Software Engineering for Fairness: A Case Study with Hyperparameter Optimization

no code implementations14 May 2019 Joymallya Chakraborty, Tianpei Xia, Fahmid M. Fahid, Tim Menzies

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first application of hyperparameter optimization as a tool for software engineers to generate fairer software.
