Beyond Distributive Justice: Hermeneutical Fairness in Ad Delivery
Camilla Quaresmini, Valentina Breschi, Jessica Leoni +3
Fairness in online advertising is often formalized as a distributive justice problem, aiming to ensure that impressions, opportunities, or outcomes are allocated comparably across…
Measuring Epistemic Unfairness for Algorithmic Decision-Making
Camilla Quaresmini, Lisa Piccinin, Valentina Breschi
Algorithmic systems increasingly function as epistemic infrastructures that govern the conditions of interpretative access and social belief. Yet, mainstream auditing strategies op…
Explainable Condition Monitoring via Probabilistic Anomaly Detection Applied to Helicopter Transmissions
Aurelio Raffa Ugolini, Jessica Leoni, Valentina Breschi +4
We present a novel Explainable methodology for Condition Monitoring, relying on healthy data only. Since faults are rare events, we propose to focus on learning the probability dis…
Fairness-aware design of nudging policies under stochasticity and prejudices
Lisa Piccinin, Camilla Quaresmini, Edoardo Vitale +2
We present an injustice-aware innovation-diffusion model extending the Generalized Linear Threshold framework by assigning agents activation thresholds drawn from a Beta distributi…
Optimal policy design for innovation diffusion: shaping today's incentives for transforming the future
Lisa Piccinin, Valentina Breschi, Chiara Ravazzi +2
In this paper, we propose a new framework for the design of incentives aimed at promoting innovation diffusion in social influence networks. In particular, our framework relies on…
Constrained Performance Boosting Control for Nonlinear Systems
Gianluca Giacomelli, Danilo Saccani, Siep Weiland +2
We present the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) for Performance Boosting (PB), an approach for designing neural controllers for stable nonlinear systems subject t…
