Algorithmic fairness

the tendency of trained models to exaggerate the correlations present in their training data, such as linking cooking images even more strongly with women.

In algorithmic fairness, bias amplification refers to the tendency of trained models to exaggerate the correlations present in their training data, such as linking cooking images even more strongly with women. This meaning comes from Zhao (2017) in Proceedings of the 2017 Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing.[1]
