Toward responsible face datasets: modeling the distribution of a disentangled latent space for sampling face images from demographic groups

Sébastien Marcel, Parsa Rahimi Noshanagh, Christophe René Joseph Ecabert

Recently, it has been exposed that some modern facial recognition systems could discriminate specific demographic groups and may lead to unfair attention with respect to various facial attributes such as gender and origin. The main reason are the biases in ...

Interplay between upsampling and regularization for provider fairness in recommender systems

Mirko Marras

Considering the impact of recommendations on item providers is one of the duties of multi-sided recommender systems. Item providers are key stakeholders in online platforms, and their earnings and plans are influenced by the exposure their items receive in ...

The Theory, Practice, and Ethical Challenges of Designing a Diversity-Aware Platform for Social Relations

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Lakmal Buddika Meegahapola

Diversity-aware platform design is a paradigm that responds to the ethical challenges of existing social media platforms. Available platforms have been criticized for minimizing users' autonomy, marginalizing minorities, and exploiting users' data for prof ...

Archiving the Leftovers of Science: Metadata and Histories of Scientific Institutions

Alina Volynskaya

In this article, I focus on digital scientific archives which are made up of the leftovers of science, such as drafts, obsolete instruments, photographs, documentation, etc. The artifacts exhibited in such collections were neither meant to be representatio ...

Patent citations reexamined

Kenneth Younge, Jeffrey Kuhn

Many studies rely on patent citations to measure intellectual heritage and impact. In this article, we show that the nature of patent citations has changed dramatically in recent years. Today, a small minority of patent applications are generating a large ...

Ion cyclotron resonance heating for tungsten control in various JET H-mode scenarios

Jonathan Graves, Javier García Hernández

Ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) in the hydrogen minority scheme provides central ion heating and acts favorably on the core tungsten transport. Full wave modeling shows that, at medium power level (4MW), after collisional redistribution, the ratio o ...

Acoustic and Lexical Resource Constrained ASR using Language-Independent Acoustic Model and Language-Dependent Probabilistic Lexical Model

Mathew Magimai Doss, Ramya Rasipuram

One of the key challenges involved in building statistical automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems is modeling the relationship between subword units or “lexical units” and acoustic feature observations. To model this relationship two types of resources ...

Grapheme-based Automatic Speech Recognition using Probabilistic Lexical Modeling

Ramya Rasipuram

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems incorporate expert knowledge of language or the linguistic expertise through the use of phone pronunciation lexicon (or dictionary) where each word is associated with a sequence of phones. The creation of phone pr ...

Modeling methodology of high-voltage substrate minority and majority carrier injections

Maher Kayal, Jean-Michel Sallese, Fabrizio Lo Conte

This paper presents a modeling methodology for substrate current coupling mechanisms. An enhanced model of the diode ensuring continuity of minority carriers is used to build an equivalent schematic, accounting for minority and majority carrier propagation ...
