The Econometric Society Interdisciplinary Frontiers (ESIF) conference on Economics and AI+ML will be hosted by Cornell University, in Ithaca NY, on August 13-14. The purpose of the meeting is to foster interaction of ideas and methodologies from the...
AI is often portrayed as a safety risk, but the mobility industry has a long history of using the technology to make travel safer, more efficient, and better for consumers. Its experience should inspire decision-makers in mobility and beyond as they...
Mathematical techniques, such as optimization models, are used for decision-making in a wide variety of application areas, from medical care to congressional districting. Fairness is often an important part of decision-making, but it can be...
This talk is co-sponsored by the Department of Statistics and Data Science and the Center for Data Science for Enterprise and Society. Abstract: In this talk we will describe two applications of empirical Bayes (EB) methodology. EB procedures...
Title: The Role of Loss Landscapes in Feedback Policy Optimization and in Neural Network Generalization Abstract: The first part of this talk focuses on recent developments in policy optimization (a gradient-based iterative approach for feedback...
ABSTRACT This talk seeks to redefine the boundaries of statistical robustness. For too long, the field has languished in the shadows of contamination models, adversarial constructs, and outlier management—approaches that, while foundational,...
Abstract: Geometry arises in a myriad ways across the sciences, and quite naturally also within AI and optimization. In this talk I wish to share with you examples where geometry helps us understand problems in machine learning, optimization, and...
Abstract: One grand goal of machine learning is to design widely applicable and resource-efficient learning models that are robust, even under commonly occurring distribution shifts in the input data. A promising step towards this goal is to...
Today’s Supreme Court is unmistakably inclined to reject the use of race-conscious measures in law and policy — as Chief Justice Roberts memorably put it, “The way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the...
This talk is part of the CAM Colloquium and Cornell’s Center for Data Science for Enterprise and Society’s Data Science Distinguished Lecture Series ABSTRACT: The mathematical attention to voting systems has come in waves: the first wave...
Veridical Data Science Toward Trustworthy AI “AI is like nuclear energy–both promising and dangerous.” Bill Gates, 2019 Data Science is central to AI and has driven most of recent advances in biomedicine and beyond. Human judgment...
