Hoy @amarekas, investigador en @mldcmu, explicó la relevancia de la “interpretabilidad” en modelos de Machine Learning, ante la complejidad de algoritmos que pueden convertirse en “cajas negras” durante la toma de decisiones humanas en temas con impacto social. @datascifellows

Our #DSSG fellows are getting ready to share their work with our partners, so we're thinking hard about how to evaluate our work in the real world! Comparing our results to historical data is not enough, we need to find ways to make sure our #datascience has #socialimpact!

Our #DSSG fellows had a great time learning from @csoares about using #metalearning to choose the right model for their data! This week, fellows will run their models end-to-end and select the best models to inform their partners! @HeinzCollege @mldcmu @CarnegieMellon
End of my first week visiting @rayidghani at the Data Science for Social Good Summer Summer Internship Carnegie Mellon University with a talk on metalearning and subgroup discovery to understand algorithm and model behavior. The discussion concerning the…lnkd.in/dBrKGV5w
