Using Resynthesized Natural Data to Probe Algorithmic Bias: A Study in De-Identification Tools
2023-09-26
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Purpose: </h4> We present a series of experiments designed to quantify the algorithmic bias inherent in six off-the-shelf de-identification systems. We frame the core measure of algorithmic bias for de-identification tools in terms of the following null hypothesis: an (unbiased) de-identification system will perform equally well regardless of the gender, race, or ethnicity of the patient.
