Algorithmic Decision Making Based on ML from Big Data. Can Transparency Resto...
Decision-making assisted by algorithms developed by machine learning is increasingly determining our lives. Unfortunately, full opacity about the process is the norm. Would... -
Machine Learning Explainability Via Microaggregation and Shallow Decision Trees
Artificial intelligence (AI) is being deployed in missions that are increasingly critical for human life. To build trust in AI and avoid an algorithm-based authoritarian... -
Grounds for Trust. Essential Epistemic Opacity and Computational Reliabilism
Several philosophical issues in connection with computer simulations rely on the assumption that results of simulations are trustworthy. Examples of these include the debate... -
Fair Prediction with Disparate Impact A Study of Bias in Recidivism Predictio...
Recidivism prediction instruments (RPIs) provide decision-makers with an assessment of the likelihood that a criminal defendant will reoffend at a future point in time.... -
Solving the Black Box Problem. A Normative Framework for Explainable Artifici...
Many of the computing systems programmed using Machine Learning are opaque: it is difficult to know why they do what they do or how they work. Explainable Artificial... -
Toward Accountable Discrimination Aware Data Mining
"Big Data" and data-mined inferences are affecting more and more of our lives, and concerns about their possible discriminatory effects are growing. Methods for... -
How the machine thinks. Understanding opacity in machine learning algorithms
This article considers the issue of opacity as a problem for socially consequential mechanisms of classification and ranking, such as spam filters, credit card fraud... -
Seeing without knowing. Limitations of transparency and its application to al...
Models for understanding and holding systems accountable have long rested upon ideals and logics of transparency. Being able to see a system is sometimes equated with being able... -
Bias in algorithmic filtering and personalization
Online information intermediaries such as Facebook and Google are slowly replacing traditional media channels thereby partly becoming the gatekeepers of our society. To deal... -
AI and Big Data A blueprint for a human rights and social and ethical impact ...
Building on studies of the collective dimension of data protection, this article sets out to embed this new perspective in an assessment model centred on human rights (Human... -
Accountability for the Use of Algorithms in a Big Data Environment
Accountability is the ability to provide good reasons in order to explain and to justify actions, decisions, and policies for a (hypothetical) forum of persons or... -
Algorithmic Accountability and Public Reason
The ever-increasing application of algorithms to decision-making in a range of social contexts has prompted demands for algorithmic accountability. Accountable decision-makers... -
General confidentiality and utility metrics for privacy-preserving data publi...
Anonymization for privacy-preserving data publishing, also known as statistical disclosure control (SDC), can be viewed under the lens of the permutation model. According to... -
Proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and the Council laying d...
Our remarks focus on two main issues: 1) providing operational tools to link the ethics and the legal dimension of a Trustworthy AI avoiding risks of ethics washing; 2) the... -
