• Abstract: The framework developed in the present paper provides a formal ground to generate and study explainable categorizations of sets of entities, based on the epistemic attitudes of individual agents or groups thereof. Based on this framework, we discuss a machine-leaning meta-algorithm for outlier detection and classification which provides local and global explanations of its results.

  This paper introduces the first graph-based framework for generating group counterfactual explanations to audit model fairness. Our framework, named Feasible Group Counterfactual Explanations (FGCEs), captures real-world feasibility constraints and constructs subgroups with similar counterfactuals. It also addresses key trade-offs in counterfactual generation, including the balance between the number of counterfactuals, their associated costs, and the breadth of coverage achieved.

• The geometry of financial institutions -- Wasserstein clustering of financial data [0.0]
  We develop methods for condensing granular and big data into a representative and intelligible map. Financial regulation is a field that exemplifies this need, as regulators require diverse and often highly granular data from financial institutions to monitor and assess their activities. We propose a variant of Lloyd's algorithm that applies to probability distributions and uses generalized Wasserstein barycenters to construct a metric space which represents given data in condensed form.
