**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.

- 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).

- 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
