3 | My research focuses on developing fairness strategies for supervised machine learning models. 4 | I explore how ethical principles and social justice can be integrated into the evaluation and 5 | deployment of machine learning models. My work aims to identify, measure, and mitigate biases 6 | to promote more equitable outcomes. I am also interested in developing methods to detect 7 | discrimination and assess fairness in facial recognition systems. My research interests include 8 | ethics, justice, and the social impact of machine learning and artificial intelligence. 9 |
