Speech enhancement models running in production environments are commonly trained on publicly available data. This approach leads to regressions due to the lack of training/testing on representative customer data. Moreover, due to privacy reasons, developers cannot listen to customer content. This ‘…
To avoid discriminatory uses of their data, organizations can learn to map them into a representation that filters out information related to sensitive attributes. However, all existing methods in fair representation learning generate a fairness-information trade-off. To achieve different points on…
Organizations that collect and sell data face increasing scrutiny for the discriminatory use of data. We propose a novel unsupervised approach to map data into a compressed binary representation independent of sensitive attributes. We show that in an information bottleneck framework, a parsimonious…
This paper explores the statistical properties of fair representation learning, a pre-processing method that preemptively removes the correlations between features and sensitive attributes by mapping features to a fair representation space. We show that the demographic parity of a representation can…
