        <div dir="ltr">Hi,
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>I was wondering if there's any interest in adding
            fairness metrics to sklearn. Specifically, I was thinking of
            implementing the metrics described here: </div>

              moz-do-not-send="true">https://dsapp.uchicago.edu/projects/aequitas/</a></div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>I recognize that these metrics are extremely simple to
            calculate, but given that sklearn is the standard machine
            learning package in python, I think it would be very
            powerful to explicitly include algorithmic fairness - it
            would make these methods more accessible and, as a matter of
            principle, demonstrate that ethics is part of ML and not an
            afterthought. I would love to hear the groups' thoughts and
            if there's interest in such a feature.</div>

          <div>Thanks!</div>
