Abstract
Decision Making has been dramatically impacted by Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. While state-of-the-art Machine Learning models provide excellent accuracy, they effectively work as black boxes. This lack of transparency, with complex functions expressing the relation between input (features) and the outputs (responses), challenges model validation. Furthermore, black boxes may hide unfair outcomes for risk groups in high stakes decision making such as medical diagnosis, allocation of social benefits, or approvals in parole hearings. In this presentation, we will navigate through some novel mathematical optimization techniques embedded in the construction of Machine Learning models to enhance their interpretability and fairness.
