fairlearn.metrics.equalized_odds_ratio

fairlearn.metrics.equalized_odds_ratio(y_true, y_pred, *, sensitive_features, method='between_groups', sample_weight=None)

Calculate the equalized odds ratio.

The smaller of two metrics: true_positive_rate_ratio and false_positive_rate_ratio. The former is the ratio between the smallest and largest of \(P[h(X)=1 | A=a, Y=1]\), across all values \(a\) of the sensitive feature(s). The latter is defined similarly, but for \(P[h(X)=1 | A=a, Y=0]\). The equalized odds ratio of 1 means that all groups have the same true positive, true negative, false positive, and false negative rates.
