The recent developments of Artificial Intelligence have led to great benefits but also a growing awareness of the risks associated with its use. Various benchmark regulations have been created, such as the AI Act, to protect those belonging to the so-called unprivileged groups from these risks. Auditors naturally qualify as those who can verify that the outcome of AI adheres to the law, using statistical tools called fairness measures. However, conducting an AI audit presents different issues. To tackle these issues, we implemented an easily understandable decision-making workflow that the Auditor can use as a guide in selecting the most appropriate Fairness Measure to use. To understand the functioning of such decision-making workflow, we applied it to a well-known real-life case: the COMPAS dataset. Additionally, we immediately recognized new challenges for the future, which we hope to address through an exchange of ideas!

Om discriminatie door een selectie-algoritme te voorkomen is een eerste reactie vaak om gevoelige informatie helemaal weg te laten. Dit biedt echter geen garantie voor succes en leidt ertoe dat je zicht op mogelijke discriminatie verliest. Door in de selectie, na het algoritme, bij te sturen kan je zowel effectief als representatief selecteren. Zo houd je zelf de regie in handen en maak je het selectie-algoritme transparant.
