Is Fairness Truly Fair? Towards Reliable Lipschitz Fairness in Multi-Task Learning via Fixed-\texorpdfstring{$\delta$}{delta} Alignment

Researchers propose ReLiF, a framework addressing fairness evaluation problems in multi-task machine learning by using fixed evaluation thresholds rather than model-dependent ones. The work identifies how different algorithms can appear unfairly comparable under inconsistent fairness metrics and demonstrates that proper auditing protocols reveal genuine utility-fairness trade-offs obscured by conventional methods.

Extending Fair Null-Space Projections for Continuous Attributes to Kernel Methods

Researchers extend null-space projection techniques for fairness in machine learning to kernel methods, enabling fair regression with continuous protected attributes. The method transforms kernel matrices directly and demonstrates competitive performance with Support Vector Regression across multiple datasets, advancing the limited field of continuous fairness in ML systems.

Fairness of Classifiers in the Presence of Constraints between Features

Researchers propose a new fairness framework for machine learning classifiers that defines fairness through fair explanations—prime-implicant reasons for decisions that exclude protected features like gender. The study reveals that feature constraints can obscure discriminatory dependencies and that ignoring these constraints fundamentally changes fairness assessments, establishing computational complexity benchmarks for three distinct fairness definitions.

MIFair: A Mutual-Information Framework for Intersectionality and Multiclass Fairness

Researchers introduce MIFair, a machine learning framework using mutual information to assess and mitigate bias in AI systems, with particular strength in handling intersectionality and multiclass classification. The framework consolidates diverse fairness metrics into a unified approach and demonstrates effectiveness on real-world datasets while maintaining predictive performance.
