报告摘要：The use of machine learning and artificial intelligence in decision-making processes has raised widespread concerns about algorithmic bias affecting different social groups. Despite the growing adoption of these technologies in education, research on their fairness in this context remains limited. In this talk, Dr. Guanliang Chen will present his recent work on improving algorithmic fairness in education through a data sampling perspective. This research offers novel insights into mitigating biases and promoting equity in educational predictive models, paving the way for more inclusive and fair applications of AI in learning environments.
