Claim 20:
21. A method for monitoring and detecting bias in an application, the method comprising:
indexing, by a bias monitoring computing system, training data;
obtaining, by the bias monitoring computing system, a plurality of correlation values of one or more features in the indexed training data with a target variable, wherein for each of the one or more features:
calculating a first value of correlation of the plurality of correlation values of the one of the one or more features and a favorable result of a judgement by a trained artificial intelligence model;
calculating a second value of correlation of the plurality of correlation values of the one of the one or more features and a unfavorable result of a judgement by the trained artificial intelligence model;
calculating, by the bias monitoring computing system, an absolute value of a difference between the calculated first value and the calculated second value; and
calculating, by the bias monitoring computing system, a total sum of the calculated absolute value of the plurality of correlation values of the one of the one or more features;
identifying, by a bias monitoring computing system, a feature from one or more features of a software application;
determining, by the bias monitoring computing system, if there is a bias in the identified feature from the one or more features of the software application;
determining, by the bias monitoring computing system, a favorable or an unfavorable decision when there is the bias determined in the identified feature; and
providing, by the bias monitoring computing system, the identified feature with the determined bias and the determined favorable or an unfavorable decision.
