Portable Causal Fairness Across Synthetic Data Generator Families

The paper demonstrates that causal fairness mechanisms can be applied across a wide range of synthetic data generators, including marginal‑based, GAN, and diffusion models, each with differentially private variants. By porting three fairness definitions to nine generators and testing them on Adult and COMPAS datasets, the authors show that the causal diffusion backbone consistently produces the fairest data releases while maintaining high fidelity. The fairness cuts have minimal impact on data quality, costing downstream classifiers only about $0.07$ to $0.15$ AUC on average, and adding privacy guarantees does not reduce fairness.

Efficient Unlearning with Privacy Guarantees

arXiv:2507. 04771v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Privacy protection laws, such as the GDPR, grant individuals the right to request the forgetting of their personal data not only from databases but also from machine learning (ML) models trained on them.
