**Toolkit for Auditing and Mitigating Bias and Fairness**

**of Machine Learning Systems 🔎🤖🧰**

*Responsibly* is developed for **practitioners** and **researchers** in mind,

but also for learners. Therefore, it is compatible with

data science and machine learning tools of trade in Python,

such as Numpy, Pandas, and especially **scikit-learn**.

The primary goal is to be one-shop-stop for **auditing** bias

and fairness of machine learning systems, and the secondary one

is to mitigate bias and adjust fairness through

**algorithmic interventions**.

Besides, there is a particular focus on **NLP** models.

*Responsibly* consists of three sub-packages:

1. ``responsibly.dataset``

     Collection of common benchmark datasets from fairness research.

2. ``responsibly.fairness``

     Demographic fairness in binary classification,

     including metrics and algorithmic interventions.

3. ``responsibly.we``

     Metrics and debiasing methods for bias (such as gender and race)

     in word embedding.

For fairness, *Responsibly*'s functionality is aligned with the book

`Fairness and Machine Learning

- Limitations and Opportunities `_

by Solon Barocas, Moritz Hardt and Arvind Narayanan.
