Understanding challenges to the interpretation of disaggregated evaluations of algorithmic fairness

Stephen R. Pfohl, Natalie Harris, Chirag Nagpal +12

Disaggregated evaluation across subgroups is critical for assessing the fairness of machine learning models, but its uncritical use can mislead practitioners. We show that equal pe…

Disparate Effect Of Missing Mediators On Transportability of Causal Effects

Vishwali Mhasawade, Rumi Chunara

Transported mediation effects provide an avenue to understand how upstream interventions (such as improved neighborhood conditions like green spaces) would work differently when ap…

Understanding Disparities in Post Hoc Machine Learning Explanation

Vishwali Mhasawade, Salman Rahman, Zoe Haskell-Craig +1

Previous work has highlighted that existing post-hoc explanation methods exhibit disparities in explanation fidelity (across 'race' and 'gender' as sensitive attributes), and while…

Causal Multi-Level Fairness

Vishwali Mhasawade, Rumi Chunara

Algorithmic systems are known to impact marginalized groups severely, and more so, if all sources of bias are not considered. While work in algorithmic fairness to-date has primari…

Fairness Violations and Mitigation under Covariate Shift

Harvineet Singh, Rina Singh, Vishwali Mhasawade +1

We study the problem of learning fair prediction models for unseen test sets distributed differently from the train set. Stability against changes in data distribution is an import…

Neural Networks and Quantifier Conservativity: Does Data Distribution Affect Learnability?

Vishwali Mhasawade, Ildikó Emese Szabó, Melanie Tosik +1

All known natural language determiners are conservative. Psycholinguistic experiments indicate that children exhibit a corresponding learnability bias when faced with the task of l…
