Algorithms matter, and so does the data they’re trained on. To improve the accuracy and fairness of algorithms that determine everything from navigation directions to mortgage approvals, we need to make it easier for practitioners to quickly assess the viability and fitness of datasets they intend to train AI algorithms on.
Kasia Chmielinski, affiliated with the Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society at Harvard University, is the Co-Founder of The Data Nutrition Project. In their virtual talk at Fraunhofer IAO they will discuss:
- how you do know if a data set is biased,
- some recent case studies for bias in AI,
- some thoughts about governmental approaches to tackle these problems, and
- her thoughts how to tackle bias in AI bottom-up.
The event is aimed at Scientists in the field of Data Science.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
