In this paper, researchers propose a novel framework for graph neural networks (GNNs) that incorporates both individual and group fairness concepts. GNNs have shown remarkable effectiveness in various applications such as social network analysis, recommendation systems, and drug discovery. However, the fairness problem has gained attention, and existing research focuses on either group fairness or individual fairness. The proposed framework, FairGI, considers both group fairness and individual fairness within groups using adversarial learning and similarity matrices. Experimental results demonstrate that FairGI outperforms state-of-the-art models in terms of group fairness and individual fairness while maintaining prediction accuracy.

This paper is about a new way to make graph neural networks fairer. Graph neural networks are good at analyzing complex data, but they can also be biased. The researchers propose a new framework that considers both group fairness (fairness between groups) and individual fairness within those groups. They test their approach and show it works better than other methods.
