“Modeling observed gender imbalances in academic citation practices” arxiv.org/abs/2204.12555
We model how homophily - the tendency to engage with the work of authors who are similar to you - can give rise to gender bias in citations and best to mitigate this bias. (1/9)
ALT Schematic of model. (A) The properties of each agent include a network estimation, a gender, 3 biases (alpha, beta, and gamma) and a citation history. (B) A schematic of the effects of alpha, which determines the gender makeup of agent's subjective network estimations. As alpha increases, network estimates will contain more women. (C) A schematic of the effects of beta, which determines how the network estimate is sampled. As beta increases, walks sampling the network will be biased towards women. (D) A schematic of how gamma influences learning during simulated meetings. Agents with low gamma values will have a lower threshold for learning and update their network estimation more often than individuals with high gamma.

We’ve got a new preprint out! 👏🥳
Have you ever wanted to model and ⚡️control⚡️neural dynamics on your connectome data? 🤔
Well, you’re in luck because our team has put together a protocol paper and a Python package to help you do just that! 😎

Among the most difficult things to understand about AI's impact in the real world is the mechanics of integration - ie. how the AI system is introduced & used within an ecosystem of decision-makers.
Finally, a thorough study on this, led by @DukeInnovate:arxiv.org/pdf/2304.13081.pdf

Check out our new preprint on learning from @khanacademy videos (by @paxt0n4, @andyheusser, and @jeremyRmanning)! We use text embeddings to model and map what people know and how knowledge changes over time.

Why are some brain regions specialists versus generalists? For efficiency, regions might compress activity but forfeit functional flexibility. We find support for this idea in brains networks and RNNs.

New preprint on statistical and network learning🎉
When exposed to a sound stream, adults compute biased transitional probabilities between the items and extract the structure from the underlying network. They even generalize to missing data!
