# smclarify

Amazon Sagemaker Clarify

Bias detection and mitigation for datasets and models.

# Installation

To install the package from PIP you can simply do:

```

pip install smclarify

```

You can see examples on running the Bias metrics on the notebooks in the [examples folder](https://github.com/aws/amazon-sagemaker-clarify/tree/master/examples).

# Terminology

### Facet

A facet is column or feature that will be used to measure bias against. A facet can have value(s) that designates that sample as "***sensitive***".

### Label

The label is a column or feature which is the target for training a machine learning model. The label can have value(s) that designates that sample as having a "***positive***" outcome.

### Bias measure

A bias measure is a function that returns a bias metric.

### Bias metric

A bias metric is a numerical value indicating the level of bias detected as determined by a particular bias measure.

### Bias report

A collection of bias metrics for a given dataset or a combination of a dataset and model.

# Development

It's recommended that you setup a virtualenv.

```

virtualenv -p(which python3) venv

source venv/bin/activate.fish

pip install -e .[test]

cd src/

../devtool all

```

For running unit tests, do `pytest --pspec`. If you are using PyCharm, and cannot see the green run button next to the tests, open `Preferences` -> `Tools` -> `Python Integrated tools`, and set default test runner to `pytest`.

For Internal contributors, run ```../devtool integ_tests``` after creating virtualenv with the above steps to run the integration tests.
