ABSTRACT
*We identify conditional parity as a general notion of nondiscrimination 
in machine learning. In fact, several recently proposed notions of 
non-discrimination, including a few counterfactual notions, are 
instances of conditional parity. We show that conditional parity is 
amenable to statistical analysis by studying randomization as a general 
mechanism for achieving conditional parity and a kernel-based test of 
conditional parity.
