Abstract
- Individual fairness requires that similar individuals are treated similarly. It is supposed to prevent the unfair treatment of individuals on the subgroup level and to overcome the problem that group fairness measures are susceptible to manipulation or gerrymandering. The goal of the present paper is to explore the extent to which individual fairness itself can be gerrymandered. It will be proved that individual fairness can be gerrymandered in the context of predicting scores. Then, it will be argued that individual fairness is a very weak notion of fairness for some choices of feature space and metric. Finally, it will be discussed which properties of (individual) fairness are desirable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
