Partial Re-Analysis of ProPublica's Analysis ============= This repo contains my (partial) re-analysis of the ProPublica story "Machine Bias." The only part changed from the original is [`regression-correction.ipynb`](https://github.com/anniejw6/compas-analysis/blob/master/regression-correction.ipynb). Story: https://www.propublica.org/article/machine-bias-risk-assessments-in-criminal-sentencing/ Methodology: https://www.propublica.org/article/how-we-analyzed-the-compas-recidivism-algorithm/ Notebook (you'll probably want to follow along in the methodology): https://github.com/propublica/compas-analysis/blob/master/Compas%20Analysis.ipynb Main Dataset: compas.db - a sqlite3 database containing criminal history, jail and prison time, demographics and COMPAS risk scores for defendants from Broward County. Other files as needed for the analysis.
