Systems, methods, and graphical user interfaces for mitigating bias in a machine learning-based decisioning model

Abstract

A system, method, and computer-program product includes obtaining a decisioning dataset comprising a plurality of favorable decisioning records and at least one unfavorable decisioning record; detecting, via a machine learning algorithm, a favorable decisioning record of the plurality of favorable decisioning records that has a vector value closest to a vector value of the unfavorable decisioning record; executing a counterfactual assessment between the favorable decisioning record and the unfavorable decisioning record; generating an explainability artifact based on one or more bias intensity metrics to explain a bias in a machine learning-based decisioning model; and in response to generating the explainability artifact, displaying the explainability artifact in a user interface.
