Measuring Societal Biases from Text Corpora with Smoothed First-Order Co-occurrence
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We compare these approaches by conducting several experiments on the scenario of measuring gender bias of occupational words, according to an English Wikipedia corpus. ...
The common approach to measuring such biases using a corpus is by calculating the similarities between the embedding vector of a word (like nurse) and the vectors of the representative words of the concepts ...
We use the discussed word representations, trained on an English Wikipedia corpus to study the characteristics of the first-and high-order bias measurement approaches. ...

These attributes can be used in a fusion framework to improve the matching accuracy of a primary biometric system (e.g., fusing face with gender information), or can be used to generate qualitative descriptions ...
In this paper, we provide an overview of soft biometrics and discuss some of the techniques that have been proposed to extract them from image and video data. ...
Falsetti [58] and Lazenby [140] used measurements of metacarpals of the human hand and obtained gender classification rates of up to 92%. Another approach to determine the gender by Krishan et al. ...

A giant with feet of clay: on the validity of the data that feed machine learning in medicine
[article]
2018

To this aim, we point out how uncertainty is so ingrained in medicine that it biases also the representation of clinical phenomena, that is the very input of ML models, thus undermining the clinical significance ...
This paper considers the use of Machine Learning (ML) in medicine by focusing on the main problem that this computational approach has been aimed at solving or at least minimizing: uncertainty. ...

Hippocampal development and the dissociation of cognitive-spatial mapping from motor performance
2015
F1000Research
This form of latent learning was interpreted as successfully demonstrating that an exploratory cognitive map component was acquired irrespective of performing a learned spatial response under deprivation ...
Subsequent behavioral studies attempted to directly eliminate the motor component of spatial learning by allowing rats to passively view the distal environment before performing any motor response using ...
Also, the use of an unbiased stereology technique should be considered. 8) It appears that different behavioral procedures may have been conducted at different institutions. ...
