New method tackles biased datasets in machine learning

Researchers have developed a new method for machine learning models to learn from biased datasets, addressing the issue where certain groups may be under or over-represented. The proposed approach uses conditional \u0393-biased sampling and applies distributionally robust optimization to minimize worst-case risk across a family of test distributions. This method is demonstrated to be robust to sampling bias and is validated through case studies on predicting mental health scores and ICU length of stay. AI

IMPACT This research could improve the fairness and accuracy of AI models trained on real-world data, which often exhibits sampling biases.

    Learning from a Biased Sample

    arXiv:2209.01754v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The empirical risk minimization approach to data-driven decision making requires access to training data drawn under the same conditions as those that will be faced when the decision rule is deployed. However, in a number …
