A Generalised Exponentiated Gradient Approach to Enhance Fairness in Binary and Multi-class Classification Tasks
Boubekraoui, Maryam, d'Aloisio, Giordano, Di Marco, Antinisca
The widespread use of AI and ML models in sensitive areas raises significant concerns about fairness. While the research community has introduced various methods for bias mitigation in binary classification tasks, the issue remains under-explored in multi-class classification settings. To address this limitation, in this paper, we first formulate the problem of fair learning in multi-class classification as a multi-objective problem between effectiveness (i.e., prediction correctness) and multiple linear fairness constraints. Next, we propose a Generalised Exponentiated Gradient (GEG) algorithm to solve this task. GEG is an in-processing algorithm that enhances fairness in binary and multi-class classification settings under multiple fairness definitions. We conduct an extensive empirical evaluation of GEG against six baselines across seven multi-class and three binary datasets, using four widely adopted effectiveness metrics and three fairness definitions. GEG overcomes existing baselines, with fairness improvements up to 92% and a decrease in accuracy up to 14%.

Ancient Andean parrot trade route stretched over 300 miles
The sophisticated network crossed mountains in Peru and pre-dates the Inca Empire. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Ancient parrots really got around. A new analysis of their DNA found that humans transported living Amazonian macaw parrots across the Andes mountains to coastal Peru hundreds of years before the Inca Empire. The findings are detailed in a study published today in the journal and reveal a highly sophisticated and long-distance bird trading network across deserts, highlands, and rainforests.
