The paper examines how multi‑level fairness techniques—combining several bias‑mitigation steps—can reduce biases across patient demographics in health informatics. It reviews current literature, identifies gaps in implementation and reporting of health equity outcomes, and evaluates the role of reporting standards such as MINIMAR and TRIPOD in enhancing transparency. The authors conclude with recommendations to improve reporting transparency, broaden adoption of multi‑level fairness methods, and explicitly prioritize health equity in future research.

Algorithmic fairness methods are increasingly used to identify and mitigate bias in machine learning models, yet most approaches are evaluated in isolation and along single demographic axes. This limits practical guidance for selecting fairness strategies, where disparities may arise across intersectional subgroups and across multiple stages of the modeling lifecycle.

This PhD thesis examines how machine learning (ML) influences society, noting that ML increasingly shapes consequential decisions and recommendations. It highlights the risk of discriminatory effects when fairness is not explicitly considered in data‑driven systems. The work proposes methods for measuring fairness, decomposing ML systems to anticipate bias, and implementing interventions that reduce discrimination while preserving utility, and it outlines future research directions as ML, including generative AI, becomes more integrated into society.
