This is the companion code for the paper:
Spinelli I, Scardapane S, Hussain A, Uncini A, FairDrop: Biased Edge Dropout for Enhancing Fairness in Graph Representation Learning, IEEE Transactions on Artificial Intelligence 2021.
We introduce a flexible biased edge dropout algorithm for enhancing fairness in graph representation learning. FairDrop targets the negative effect of the network's homophily w.r.t the sensitive attribute.
Many thanks to the authors of [1] for making their code public and to the maintainers [3] for such an awesome open-source library.
