Mitigate bias in SVM classifier using AdversarialDebiasing method

[pradeepdev-1995]

How to mitigate bias in the SVC classifier using AdversarialDebiasing (in-process bias mitigation) method?
In the documentation, it seems that it learns its own classifier. So how to load our own specific classifier like SVM to AdversarialDebiasing?

In-processing algorithms are tied to their models. Specific other classifiers cannot be swapped in.

So applying in processing algorithm to mitigate bias in an existing model(SVM, logistic regression,MLP...etc) is not possible in AIF360? @kvarsh

The whole idea of in-processing algorithms is that they are models themselves. For example the prejudice remover is a logistic regression regularized by a fairness term. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-33486-3_3 https://aif360.readthedocs.io/en/v0.4.0/modules/generated/aif360.algorithms.inprocessing.PrejudiceRemover.html

This is not related to AIF360, but just the nature of in-processing.
