Building Trust in Black-box Optimization: A Comprehensive Framework for Explainability
Nazanin Nezami, Hadis Anahideh
Optimizing costly black-box functions within a constrained evaluation budget presents significant challenges in many real-world applications. Surrogate Optimization (SO) is a commo…
Hyperparameter Adaptive Search for Surrogate Optimization: A Self-Adjusting Approach
Nazanin Nezami, Hadis Anahideh
Surrogate Optimization (SO) algorithms have shown promise for optimizing expensive black-box functions. However, their performance is heavily influenced by hyperparameters related…
FairPilot: An Explorative System for Hyperparameter Tuning through the Lens of Fairness
Francesco Di Carlo, Nazanin Nezami, Hadis Anahideh +1
Despite the potential benefits of machine learning (ML) in high-risk decision-making domains, the deployment of ML is not accessible to practitioners, and there is a risk of discri…
An Empirical Review of Model-based Adaptive Sampling for Global Optimization of Expensive Black-box Functions
Nazanin Nezami, Hadis Anahideh
This paper reviews the state-of-the-art model-based adaptive sampling approaches for single-objective black-box optimization (BBO). While BBO literature includes various promising…
Auditing the Imputation Effect on Fairness of Predictive Analytics in Higher Education
Hadis Anahideh, Parian Haghighat, Nazanin Nezami +1
Colleges and universities use predictive analytics in a variety of ways to increase student success rates. Despite the potential for predictive analytics, two major barriers exist…
Finding Representative Group Fairness Metrics Using Correlation Estimations
Hadis Anahideh, Nazanin Nezami, Abolfazl Asudeh
It is of critical importance to be aware of the historical discrimination embedded in the data and to consider a fairness measure to reduce bias throughout the predictive modeling…
Fair and Diverse Allocation of Scarce Resources
Hadis Anahideh, Lulu Kang, Nazanin Nezami
We aim to design a fairness-aware allocation approach to maximize the geographical diversity and avoid unfairness in the sense of demographic disparity. During the development of t…
