OmniFair: A Declarative System for Model-Agnostic Group Fairness in Machine Learning
Summary: Declarative, model-agnostic OmniFair for enforcing group fairness in ML; supports statistical parity, equalized odds, and predictive parity via a single interface. Provably monotone trade-off between accuracy and fairness enables efficient optimization across multiple constraints, model-agnostic to training methods, delivering strong accuracy with fast runtimes.
