In a paper published this week on the preprint server Arxiv.org, researchers affiliated with Rutgers, the University of California, and the University of Washington propose an approach to mitigate what they characterize as an “unfairness problem” in product recommendation algorithms. They say their algorithm provides high-quality explainable recommendations on state-of-the-art real-world data sets,  » ….
