This paper proposes CP-FairRank, an optimization-based re-ranking algorithm that integrates fairness constraints from both consumer and producer sides in a joint objective framework. The algorithm is designed to handle varied fairness settings based on group segmentation, recommendation model selection, and domain. It demonstrates the ability to improve both consumer and producer fairness without compromising overall recommendation quality, highlighting the role algorithms can play in avoiding data biases.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
In this paper, researchers develop an algorithm called CP-FairRank that helps make recommendations fair for both people who use them (consumers) and those whose items are recommended (producers). This is important because current recommender systems might treat certain groups unfairly. The algorithm considers different fairness settings and can improve fairness without sacrificing how well the recommendations work overall.
