Abstract
Contrary to traditional deterministic notions of algorithmic fairness, this paper argues that fairly allocating scarce resources using machine learning often requires randomness. We address why, when, and how to randomize by offering a set of stochastic procedures that more adequately account for all of the claims individuals have to allocations of social goods or opportunities and effectively balances their interests.
