The Cadaver in the Machine: The Social Practices of Measurement and Validation in Motion Capture Technology

no code implementations19 Jan 2024 Emma Harvey, Hauke Sandhaus, Abigail Z. Jacobs, Emanuel Moss, Mona Sloane

Motion capture systems, used across various domains, make body representations concrete through technical processes.

The Role of Relevance in Fair Ranking

1 code implementation9 May 2023 Aparna Balagopalan, Abigail Z. Jacobs, Asia Biega

Online platforms mediate access to opportunity: relevance-based rankings create and constrain options by allocating exposure to job openings and job candidates in hiring platforms, or sellers in a marketplace.

Measurement and Fairness

no code implementations11 Dec 2019 Abigail Z. Jacobs, Hanna Wallach

We argue that this contestedness underlies recent debates about fairness definitions: although these debates appear to be about different operationalizations, they are, in fact, debates about different theoretical understandings of fairness.

A unified view of generative models for networks: models, methods, opportunities, and challenges

no code implementations14 Nov 2014 Abigail Z. Jacobs, Aaron Clauset

Here, we describe a unified view of generative models for networks that draws together many of these disparate threads and highlights the fundamental similarities and differences that span these fields.

Learning Latent Block Structure in Weighted Networks

no code implementations2 Apr 2014 Christopher Aicher, Abigail Z. Jacobs, Aaron Clauset

We then evaluate the WSBM's performance on both edge-existence and edge-weight prediction tasks for a set of real-world weighted networks.

Efficiently inferring community structure in bipartite networks

1 code implementation12 Mar 2014 Daniel B. Larremore, Aaron Clauset, Abigail Z. Jacobs

Bipartite networks are a common type of network data in which there are two types of vertices, and only vertices of different types can be connected.

Adapting the Stochastic Block Model to Edge-Weighted Networks

no code implementations24 May 2013 Christopher Aicher, Abigail Z. Jacobs, Aaron Clauset

We generalize the stochastic block model to the important case in which edges are annotated with weights drawn from an exponential family distribution.
