New framework tackles causal fairness for continuous attributes in AI

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

This paper introduces a novel framework for addressing fairness in machine learning models, particularly for continuous protected attributes like age or gender. The proposed method formalizes fairness criteria using path-specific partial derivatives, extending existing causal formulations. It also presents a tuning algorithm designed to construct fair predictors or manage trade-offs between different fairness metrics when perfect fairness is unattainable. AI
