Researchers have proposed a new framework for analyzing fairness in machine learning by focusing on the utility function itself, rather than imposing constraints on the predictive policy. This approach, termed 'value of information fairness,' suggests that fairness is achieved when there is no incentive to infer protected attributes. The authors demonstrate how to modify utility functions to satisfy this principle and discuss the implications for optimal policies, applying the framework to hypothetical scenarios and the COMPAS dataset.
