A Suite of Fairness Datasets for Tabular Classification

Machine Learning 2023-08-02 v1 Artificial Intelligence Computers and Society

Abstract

There have been many papers with algorithms for improving fairness of machine-learning classifiers for tabular data. Unfortunately, most use only very few datasets for their experimental evaluation. We introduce a suite of functions for fetching 20 fairness datasets and providing associated fairness metadata. Hopefully, these will lead to more rigorous experimental evaluations in future fairness-aware machine learning research.
