FairLRF: Achieving Fairness through Sparse Low Rank Factorization

FairLRF proposes a fairness-oriented low rank factorization framework that uses singular value decomposition (SVD) to improve deep learning model fairness. By selectively removing bias-inducing elements from the unitary matrices obtained via SVD, the method reduces group disparities while preserving accuracy. Experiments demonstrate that FairLRF outperforms existing low rank factorization and state-of-the-art fairness techniques, and an ablation study explores the impact of key hyper-parameters.
