AI0-001 AI Governance and Ethics Practice Question
A healthcare AI system diagnosing diabetic retinopathy from retinal images shows high accuracy overall but significantly lower recall for patients with darker skin tones. Which fairness metric would BEST capture this disparity by comparing true positive rates across groups?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Equalised odds
Equalised odds requires that the true positive rate and false positive rate be equal across groups. Demographic parity only checks outcome rates, not error types. Individual fairness compares similar individuals. Calibration checks confidence alignment.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Calibration
Why it's wrong here
Calibration checks whether predicted probabilities match actual outcomes, not whether true positive rates are equal across groups.
- ✗
Demographic parity
Why it's wrong here
Demographic parity requires equal acceptance rates across groups, which does not capture differences in true positive rates.
- ✓
Equalised odds
Why this is correct
Equalised odds directly compares true positive rates and false positive rates across groups, making it the correct metric to detect the described recall disparity.
- ✗
Individual fairness
Why it's wrong here
Individual fairness ensures similar individuals receive similar predictions, not group-level error rate parity.
Quick reference
RAID Level Comparison
| RAID Level | Min Disks | Fault Tolerance | Read | Write | Usable Capacity |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| RAID 0 | 2 | None | Excellent | Excellent | 100% |
| RAID 1 | 2 | 1 disk | Good | Moderate | 50% |
| RAID 5 | 3 | 1 disk | Good | Moderate | 67–94% |
| RAID 6 | 4 | 2 disks | Good | Lower | 50–88% |
| RAID 10 | 4 | 1 disk per mirror | Excellent | Good | 50% |
RAID is not a backup strategy — it protects against disk failure but not against accidental deletion, ransomware, or site-level events.
