Ensuring Fairness with Transparent Auditing of Quantitative Bias in AI Systems

Institute of Information Science, Academia Sinica(中科院信息所)

AI总结:

本文提出了一种透明的AI公平性审计框架,通过第三方审计员和系统提供者共同参与,结合统计方法公开审查AI系统,以解决AI决策中的偏见问题。

摘要:

随着AI的快速发展,将其整合到决策过程中成为趋势。然而,AI系统可能表现出偏见,导致决策者做出不公平的结论。值得注意的是,美国司法系统中用于评估再犯风险的COMPAS系统被发现偏袒多数种族群体;具体而言,它违反了称为'均衡机会'的公平标准。已提出多种评估AI公平性的措施。我们提出了一种审计AI公平性的框架,涉及第三方审计员和AI系统提供者,并创建了一个工具来系统审查AI系统。该工具是开源且公开可用的。与传统AI系统不同,我们倡导透明的白盒和基于统计的方法。该方法可用于第三方审计员、AI开发者或公众在判断AI系统公平性标准时进行参考。

英文摘要:

With the rapid advancement of AI, there is a growing trend to integrate AI into decision-making processes. However, AI systems may exhibit biases that lead decision-makers to draw unfair conclusions. Notably, the COMPAS system used in the American justice system to evaluate recidivism was found to favor racial majority groups; specifically, it violates a fairness standard called equalized odds. Various measures have been proposed to assess AI fairness. We present a framework for auditing AI fairness, involving third-party auditors and AI system providers, and we have created a tool to facilitate systematic examination of AI systems. The tool is open-sourced and publicly available. Unlike traditional AI systems, we advocate a transparent white-box and statistics-based approach. It can be utilized by third-party auditors, AI developers, or the general public for reference when judging the fairness criterion of AI systems.
