# Compas
The [Compas dataset](https://github.com/propublica/compas-analysis) for recidivism prediction.
Dataset known to have racial bias issues, check this [Propublica article](https://www.propublica.org/article/machine-bias-risk-assessments-in-criminal-sentencing) on the topic.

# Configurations and tasks
| **Configuration**                | **Task**                  | Description                                                     |
|----------------------------------|---------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
| encoding                         |                           | Encoding dictionary showing original values of encoded features.|
| two-years-recidividity           | Binary classification     | Will the defendant be a violent recidivist?                     |
| two-years-recidividity-no-race   | Binary classification     | As above, but the `race` feature is removed.                    |
| priors-prediction                | Regression                | How many prior crimes has the defendant committed?              |
| priors-prediction-no-race        | Binary classification     | As above, but the `race` feature is removed.                    |
| race                             | Multiclass classification | What is the `race` of the defendant?                            |


# Usage
```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("mstz/compas", "two-years-recidividity")["train"]
```
