## What is a Rashomon set and why studying it?

*The Rashomon set* of an ML problem refers to the set of models near-optimal predictive performance.

**Why studying it?** Because models with similar performance may exhibit *drastically different* properties (such as fairness-related metrics), therefore a single model does not offer an adequate representation of reality.

An example showcasing the Rashomon set of rule set models for the [COMPAS](https://www.propublica.org/datastore/dataset/compas-recidivism-risk-score-data-and-analysis) dataset.

- Each rule set is plotted as a point, whose position is determined by the statistical parity (`SP`) of the rule set on race and gender (in the X and Y axis, respectively).

- Statistical parity quantifies the fairness of classification models

- You can see that two highlighted models have very different `SP[race]` scores, though their accuracy scores are close.

- We design efficient ⚡ algorithms to explore the Rashomon set of rule-set models for binary classification problems.
28-
- we focus on rule set models, due to their inherent interpretability
29-
- We investigated two exploration modes -- *counting* and *uniform sampling* from the set
30-
- Instead of tackling exact counting and uniform sampling, we study the approximate versions of them, which reduces the search space drastically
