fairlearn.reductions.Moment#

class fairlearn.reductions.Moment[source]#

Generic moment.

Our implementations of the reductions approach to fairness 1 make use of Moment objects to describe both the optimization objective and the fairness constraints imposed on the solution. This is an abstract class for all such objects.

Attributes

total_samples: Return the number of samples in the data.

Methods

`bound`()	Return vector of fairness bound constraint the length of gamma.
`gamma`(predictor)	Calculate the degree to which constraints are currently violated by the predictor.
`load_data`(X, y, *[, sensitive_features])	Load a set of data for use by this object.
`project_lambda`(lambda_vec)	Return the projected lambda values.
`signed_weights`(lambda_vec)	Return the signed weights.

bound()[source]#: Return vector of fairness bound constraint the length of gamma.

gamma(predictor)[source]#: Calculate the degree to which constraints are currently violated by the predictor.

load_data(X, y, *, sensitive_features=None)[source]#

Load a set of data for use by this object.

Parameters

X (array) – The feature array

sensitive_features (pandas.Series) – The sensitive feature vector (default None)

project_lambda(lambda_vec)[source]#: Return the projected lambda values.

signed_weights(lambda_vec)[source]#: Return the signed weights.

property total_samples#: Return the number of samples in the data.
