IEEE P7003TM Standard for Algorithmic Bias Considerations

The IEEE P7003 Standard for Algorithmic Bias Considerations is one of eleven IEEE ethics related standards currently under development as part of the IEEE Global Initiative on Ethics of Autonomous and Intelligent Systems. The purpose of the IEEE P7003 standard is to provide individuals or organizations creating algorithmic systems with development framework to avoid unintended, unjustified and inappropriately differential outcomes for users. In this paper, we present the scope and structure of the IEEE P7003 draft standard, and the methodology of the development process.
