Answer
- B Identify sensitive attributes, generate counterfactuals, generate model output for them, statistically analyze the results of many tests
Explanation
Disparate impact analysis runs in four steps: first, determine which sensitive attributes are relevant to the model. Then build counterexamples (counterfactuals) in which only this attribute differs, let the model assess them, and evaluate many such tests statistically. If the result changes only because of the attribute, the model is biased.
