Oracle Efficient Algorithms for Groupwise Regret

no code implementations7 Oct 2023 Krishna Acharya, Eshwar Ram Arunachaleswaran, Sampath Kannan, Aaron Roth, Juba Ziani

Our approach gives similar regret guarantees compared to [Blum & Lykouris]; however, we run in time linear in the number of groups, and are oracle-efficient in the hypothesis class.

Fair Prediction with Endogenous Behavior

no code implementations18 Feb 2020 Christopher Jung, Sampath Kannan, Changhwa Lee, Mallesh M. Pai, Aaron Roth, Rakesh Vohra

There is increasing regulatory interest in whether machine learning algorithms deployed in consequential domains (e. g. in criminal justice) treat different demographic groups "fairly."

Pipeline Interventions

no code implementations16 Feb 2020 Eshwar Ram Arunachaleswaran, Sampath Kannan, Aaron Roth, Juba Ziani

We consider two objectives: social welfare maximization, and a fairness-motivated maximin objective that seeks to maximize the value to the population (starting node) with the \emph{least} expected value.

A Center in Your Neighborhood: Fairness in Facility Location

no code implementations23 Aug 2019 Christopher Jung, Sampath Kannan, Neil Lutz

When selecting locations for a set of facilities, standard clustering algorithms may place unfair burden on some individuals and neighborhoods.

Quantifying the Burden of Exploration and the Unfairness of Free Riding

no code implementations20 Oct 2018 Christopher Jung, Sampath Kannan, Neil Lutz

We show that the free rider can achieve $O(1)$ regret in this setting whenever the free rider's context is a small (in $L_2$-norm) linear combination of other agents' contexts and all other agents pull each arm $\Omega (\log t)$ times with high probability.

Downstream Effects of Affirmative Action

no code implementations27 Aug 2018 Sampath Kannan, Aaron Roth, Juba Ziani

We show that both goals can be achieved when the college does not report grades.

Finding Optimal 1-Endpoint-Crossing Trees

no code implementations TACL 2013 Emily Pitler, Sampath Kannan, Mitchell Marcus

Dependency parsing algorithms capable of producing the types of crossing dependencies seen in natural language sentences have traditionally been orders of magnitude slower than algorithms for projective trees.
