We adapt tools from causal sensitivity analysis to the FairML context, providing a general framework which (1) accommodates effectively any combination of fairness metric and bias that can be posed in the "oblivious setting"; (2) allows researchers to investigate combinations of biases, resulting in non-linear sensitivity; and (3) enables flexible encoding of domain-specific constraints and assumptions.

These improved estimators are inspired by doubly robust estimators of the causal mean, using a similar form within the kernel space.

In order to achieve this, we must have causal models that are able to capture what someone would be like if we were to counterfactually change these traits.
