AI has the potential to change our society, but it needs to be built on the foundations of auditability and risk control
Included in the 2024 & 2025 & 2026 Stanford World Top 2% Scientists Ranking in the Artificial Intelligence Area
My research lies at the intersection of machine learning and its applications to solve real problems, with a focus on auditable AI tools, security, privacy, and new discrimination aware learning.
