Do recommendation algorithms on social networks promote inequality?
Online social networks claim to make connections and bring people together. But the ranking and recommender algorithms that suggest for instance whom to connect with, or who the most relevant scientists in a field are, are not fair. A study just published in the journal Scientific Reports shows that the algorithms can exacerbate inequalities and discriminate against certain groups of people in top ranks.
How deep learning algorithms create accurate images without a complete dataset
The speed of data collection in many kinds of imaging technologies, including MRI, depends on the number of samples taken by the machine. When the number of collected samples is small, deep neural networks can be used to remove the resulting noise and visual artifacts.
