A plethora of different definitions of fairness in ML have been proposed, that consider different notions of what is a \"fair decision\" in situations impacting individuals in the population. The precise differences, implications and \"orthogonality\" between these notions have not yet been fully analyzed in the literature. In this work, we try to make some order out of this zoo of definitions.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.00467v4","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2106.00467v4.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"the-zoo-of-fairness-metrics-in-machine","repo_url":"https://github.com/rcrupiisp/isparity","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":{"status":"ok","spdx":"Apache-2.0"}}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"machine-learning","task_name":"BIG-bench Machine Learning"},{"task_slug":"decision-making","task_name":"Decision Making"},{"task_slug":"fairness","task_name":"Fairness"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":"https://syntology.ai/paper/2106.00467","atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=2106.00467","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
