Line 3: Line 3:
 The **AI Bias Auditor** is a Python-based framework that identifies and evaluates potential biases in machine learning (ML) models. It provides a structured mechanism to analyze protected features (e.g., gender, race) and their relationship to model performance metrics, such as prediction accuracy. By quantifying fairness gaps and classifying outcomes as biased or unbiased, this tool enables responsible and ethical AI development. The **AI Bias Auditor** is a Python-based framework that identifies and evaluates potential biases in machine learning (ML) models.
