An alternative view of variational Bayes and asymptotic approximations of free energy
Bayesian learning, widely used in many applied data-modeling problems, is often accomplished with approximation schemes because it requires intractable computation of the posterio...

Three naive Bayes approaches for discrimination-free classification
In this paper, we investigate how to modify the Naive Bayes classifier in order to perform classification that is restricted to be independent with respect to a given sensitive att...
