Fairsense-AI

Fairsense-AI is a cutting edge, an AI-driven tool designed to analyze bias in text and visual content with sustainability in mind. It also offers a platform for risk identification and risk mitigation. With a strong emphasis on Bias Identification, Risk Management, and Sustainability, Fairsense-AI helps build trustworthy AI systems.


Installation and Setup

Step 1: Install supporting tools

  1. Python 3.10+
    Ensure Python is installed. Download it here.

  2. Tesseract OCR
    Required for extracting text from images.

    Installation Instructions:

    • Ubuntu:
      sudo apt-get update
      sudo apt-get install tesseract-ocr
      
    • macOS (Homebrew):
      brew install tesseract
      
    • Windows:
      Download and install Tesseract OCR from this link.
  3. Ollama (for CPU only)

    Ollama is a tool that easily installs versions of Llama that are capable of running on CPU. If the machine does not have a GPU, this is a required step.

    1. Download and install Ollama here. Make sure to also install the CLI tool.

    2. After that, please pre-download the Llama 3.2 model with the command below:

    ollama pull llama3.2
    
  4. Optional (GPU Acceleration)
    Install PyTorch with CUDA support:

    pip install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu117
    

Step 2: Install Fairsense-AI

Install the fair-sense-ai package using pip:

pip install fair-sense-ai

Quickstart Code Examples

1. Text Bias Analysis

from fairsenseai.analysis.bias import analyze_text_for_bias

# Example input text to analyze for bias
text_input = "Men are naturally better at decision-making, while women excel at emotional tasks."

# Analyze the text for bias
highlighted_text, detailed_analysis, bias_score = analyze_text_for_bias(text_input, use_summarizer=True)

# Print the analysis results
print("Highlighted Text:", highlighted_text)
print("Detailed Analysis:", detailed_analysis)
print("Bias Score:", bias_score)

2. Image Bias Analysis

import requests
from PIL import Image
from io import BytesIO
from fairsenseai.analysis.bias import analyze_image_for_bias

# URL of the image to analyze
image_url = "https://media.top1000funds.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/iStock-525807555.jpg"

# Fetch and load the image
response = requests.get(image_url)
image = Image.open(BytesIO(response.content))

# Analyze the image for bias
highlighted_caption, image_analysis = analyze_image_for_bias(image)

# Print the analysis results
print("Highlighted Caption:", highlighted_caption)
print("Image Analysis:", image_analysis)

3. Launch the Interactive Application

from fairsenseai.app import start_server

# Launch the Gradio application (will open in the browser)
start_server()

Bias Detection Tutorial

Data and Sample Notebooks

  1. Download the Data:
    Google Drive Link

  2. Colab Notebook:
    Run the Tutorial


Usage Instructions

Launching the Application

Run the following command to start Fairsense-AI:

fairsenseai

This will launch the Gradio-powered interface in your default web browser.


Features

1. Text Analysis

  • Input or paste text in the Text Analysis tab.
  • Click Analyze to detect and highlight biases.

2. Image Analysis

  • Upload an image in the Image Analysis tab.
  • Click Analyze to detect biases in embedded text or captions.

3. Batch Text CSV Analysis

  • Upload a CSV file with a text column in the Batch Text CSV Analysis tab.
  • Click Analyze CSV to process all entries.

4. Batch Image Analysis

  • Upload multiple images in the Batch Image Analysis tab.
  • Click Analyze Images for a detailed review.

5. AI Risk Management

  • Enter a brief description of your project/task.
  • Click Analyze Risks
  • Tool will display the relevant risks. It will also display the downloadable csv file with risk details, categories and suggested actions.

Additional Setup in Colab

Run the following commands to ensure everything is ready:

!pip install --quiet fair-sense-ai
!pip uninstall sympy -y
!pip install sympy --upgrade
!apt update
!apt install -y tesseract-ocr

Note: Restart your system if you're using Google Colab.


Troubleshooting

  • Slow Model Download:
    Ensure a stable internet connection for downloading models.

  • Tesseract OCR Errors:
    Verify Tesseract is installed and accessible in your system's PATH.

  • GPU Support:
    Use the CUDA-compatible version of PyTorch for better performance.
