Saving Face: Investigating the Ethical Concerns of Facial Recognition Auditing

no code implementations3 Jan 2020 Inioluwa Deborah Raji, Timnit Gebru, Margaret Mitchell, Joy Buolamwini, Joonseok Lee, Emily Denton

Although essential to revealing biased performance, well intentioned attempts at algorithmic auditing can have effects that may harm the very populations these measures are meant to protect.

Scalable Annotation of Fine-Grained Categories Without Experts

no code implementations7 Sep 2017 Timnit Gebru, Jonathan Krause, Jia Deng, Li Fei-Fei

We present a crowdsourcing workflow to collect image annotations for visually similar synthetic categories without requiring experts.

Fine-Grained Car Detection for Visual Census Estimation

no code implementations7 Sep 2017 Timnit Gebru, Jonathan Krause, Yi-Lun Wang, Duyun Chen, Jia Deng, Li Fei-Fei

In this work, we leverage the ubiquity of Google Street View images and develop a computer vision pipeline to predict income, per capita carbon emission, crime rates and other city attributes from a single source of publicly available visual data.

Using Deep Learning and Google Street View to Estimate the Demographic Makeup of the US

no code implementations22 Feb 2017 Timnit Gebru, Jonathan Krause, Yi-Lun Wang, Duyun Chen, Jia Deng, Erez Lieberman Aiden, Li Fei-Fei

The United States spends more than $1B each year on initiatives such as the American Community Survey (ACS), a labor-intensive door-to-door study that measures statistics relating to race, gender, education, occupation, unemployment, and other demographic factors.
