We invite you to attend the next Seminar in a series of talks
<http://www.cycat.io/december-seminar/> in Fairness, Accountability,
Transparency and Ethics in Algorithmic Systems, organized by the Cyprus
Center for Algorithmic Transparency <http://www.cycat.io/>.
This seminar will be given by Dr. Gianluca Demartini is an Associate
Professor in Data Science at the University of Queensland. More information
for this event and registration, can be found below.

“Bias in Human-in-the-loop Artificial Intelligence”

Abstract: Paid micro-task crowdsourcing has gained popularity also thanks
to the rise of AI because of the convenient way to generate large-scale
manually annotated corpora and because of the possibility to create
human-in-the-loop systems. However, when using crowdsourcing platforms for
data gathering purposes, human factors need to be taken into account as
humans now become part of (and are not just users of) the system. In this
talk I will discuss our recent research in the area of micro-task
crowdsourcing with a focus on understanding crowd worker behaviors and
their implications on the quality of the collected data and the bias in it.
I will first discuss open challenges in the crowdsourcing ecosystem
including issues caused by adversarial approaches that may disrupt the
crowdsourcing model as we know it. I will then discuss how human bias is
reflected in the data which is being collected by means of crowdsourcing.
Finally, I will present our work making use of fine-grained behavioral logs.
