Abstract: Online learning and recommandation systems are ubiquitous in decision making, including in some sensitive cases such as job hiring, decision in justice, admission in college. Applying blindly standard ML technics can lead to unfair and discriminatory decisions. We will discuss some approaches for improving fairness in online learning and recommandation systems.
