Toward a fair, gender-debiased classifier for the diagnosis of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder- a Machine-Learning based classification study

Based on methodological characteristics and insights from global and local model explana-tion, we discuss the reasons of these findings and conclude, that using the combination of bias mitigation and model explanation, improved classification models can be achieved.
