Fairer Software Made Easier (using Keys)


Abstract in English

Can we simplify explanations for software analytics? Maybe. Recent results show that systems often exhibit a keys effect; i.e. a few key features control the rest. Just to say the obvious, for systems controlled by a few keys, explanation and control is just a matter of running a handful of what-if queries across the keys. By exploiting the keys effect, it should be possible to dramatically simplify even complex explanations, such as those required for ethical AI systems.
