Fairness, Accuracy, and Unreliable Data
<|reference_start|>Fairness, Accuracy, and Unreliable Data: This thesis investigates three areas targeted at improving the reliability of machine learning; fairness in machine learning, strategic classification, and algorithmic robustness. Each of these domains has special properties or structure that can complicate learning. A theme throughout this thesis is thinking about ways in which a `plain' empirical risk minimization algorithm will be misleading or ineffective because of a mis-match between classical learning theory assumptions and specific properties of some data distribution in the wild. Theoretical understanding in eachof these domains can help guide best practices and allow for the design of effective, reliable, and robust systems.<|reference_end|>
