debiasing
Eliminating systematic errors
Debiasing is the process of reducing or eliminating bias, particularly cognitive biases that distort judgment or systematic biases in data and algorithms.
In psychology, debiasing techniques help people recognize and correct flawed thinking patterns.
In machine learning, debiasing removes skewed assumptions from training data or model outputs: The team focused on debiasing the hiring algorithm to ensure fair candidate screening.
