Doubting AI Predictions: Influence-Driven Second Opinion Recommendation

Maria De-Arteaga, Alexandra Chouldechova, Artur Dubrawski

Effective human-AI collaboration requires a system design that provides humans with meaningful ways to make sense of and critically evaluate algorithmic recommendations. In this pa…

Leveraging Expert Consistency to Improve Algorithmic Decision Support

Maria De-Arteaga, Vincent Jeanselme, Artur Dubrawski +1

Machine learning (ML) is increasingly being used to support high-stakes decisions. However, there is frequently a construct gap: a gap between the construct of interest to the deci…

Discovery of Complex Anomalous Patterns of Sexual Violence in El Salvador

Maria De-Arteaga, Artur Dubrawski

When sexual violence is a product of organized crime or social imaginary, the links between sexual violence episodes can be understood as a latent structure. With this assumption i…

Canonical Autocorrelation Analysis

Maria De-Arteaga, Artur Dubrawski, Peter Huggins

We present an extension of sparse Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) designed for finding multiple-to-multiple linear correlations within a single set of variables. Unlike CCA, w…

Lass-0: sparse non-convex regression by local search

William Herlands, Maria De-Arteaga, Daniel Neill +1

We compute approximate solutions to L0 regularized linear regression using L1 regularization, also known as the Lasso, as an initialization step. Our algorithm, the Lass-0 ("Lass-z…
