Who Should Predict? Exact Algorithms For Learning to Defer to Humans

We provide algorithms that can provably minimize the learning to defer objective and provide an experimental benchmark to study human-deferral algorithms.

Sample Efficient Learning of Predictors that Complement Humans

We characterize theoretically the gain from building ML classifiers that complement humans, show how do this by reducing any multiclass loss to a cost-sensitive loss and create human-label efficient algorithms based on active learning.

Fair learning with private demographic data

We build a procedure to learn a fair predictor (e.g. satisfies equalized odds) when the demographic attributes are privatized.
