Fairness Indicators for Systematic Assessments of Visual Feature Extractors
Open accessAbstract
Does everyone equally benefit from computer vision systems? Answers to this question become more and more important as computer vision systems are deployed at large scale, and can spark major concerns when they exhibit vast performance discrepancies between people from various demographic and social backgrounds.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
Human judgment might be required to determine which features are supposed to be relevant to the task.
“However, human judgment might be required to determine which features are 'supposed' to be relevant to the task (Marks et al., 2024;Kim et al., 2018a;Goyal et al., 2022).”
From Open Problems in Mechanistic Interpretability (2025) · cites this paper as Goyal et al., 2022
In the label-association indicator section (page unavailable), the paper says that assessing whether certain predictions are correct requires manual visual inspection. That is different from deciding which features are supposed to be relevant to a task. Searches for task-relevant features and human selection found no passage addressing that decision.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
