Any machine learning software driven by data involving sensitive information should be carefully designed so that primary concerns related to human values and rights are sufficiently protected. Privacy and fairness are two of the most prominent concerns in machine learning attracting academia and industry. However, they are often addressed independently, although they both heavily rely on data distribution around sensitive personal attributes. Such a split approach cannot adequately attend to the reality in that the assessments made alongside either privacy or fairness could complicate the decision of the other. As a starting point, we present an empirical study to characterize differential privacy's utility and fairness impact on inferential systems. In particular, we investigate whether various differential privacy techniques applied to different parts of the machine learning pipeline pose any risks to group fairness. Our analysis reveals the convoluted picture of the interplay between privacy and fairness, particularly on the sensitivity of commonly used fairness metrics and shows that unfair outcomes are sometimes an unavoidable side effect of differential privacy. We further discuss essential factors to consider when designing a fairness evaluation on differentially private systems.

520 $a Tout logiciel d'apprentissage automatique pilote par des donnees impliquant des informations sensibles doit etre concu avec soin afin que les principales preoccupations liees aux valeurs et aux droits de l'homme soient suffisamment protegees. Le respect de la vie privee et l'equite sont deux des preoccupations les plus importantes de l'apprentissage automatique qui attirent les universitaires et les industriels. Cependant, elles sont souvent abordees independamment, bien qu'elles dependent toutes deux fortement de la distribution des donnees autour d'attributs per- sonnels sensibles. Une telle approche separee ne peut pas repondre adequatement a la realite dans la mesure ou les evaluations faites en meme temps que la confidentialite ou l'equite pourraient compliquer la decision de l'autre. Comme point de depart, nous presentons une etude empirique pour caracteriser l'impact de la confidentialite differentielle sur l'utilite et l'equite des systemes inferentiels. En particulier, nous examinons si diverses techniques de confidentialite differentielle appliquees a differentes parties du pipeline d'apprentissage automatique presentent des risques pour l'equite du groupe. Notre analyse revele l'image alambiquee de l'interaction entre la confidentialite et l'equite, en particulier sur la sensibilite des mesures d'equite couramment utilisees et montre que les resultats injustes sont parfois un effet secondaire inevitable de la confidentialite differentielle. Nous discutons egalement des facteurs essentiels a prendre en compte lors de la conception d'une evaluation de l'equite sur des systemes a confidentialite differentielle.
