Fall 2024 IDEAL Special Program on Interpretability, Privacy, and Fairness
When working with data we typically want more than an accurate analysis. We also want to understand why a model makes the recommendations it does, ensure it respects the privacy of individuals, and ensure that people are treated fairly. The goal of this special program is to bring together researchers from computer science, economics, mathematics, electrical engineering, and statistics working on problems these challenges in a variety of contexts, including human-AI collaboration, large language models, and their role in the ethical use of AI.
