<div style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-weight:normal;font-size:17px;line-height:24px;color:#000000">Hello Algorithm readers,<br>
<br>
In 1964, mathematician and computer scientist <a href="https://www.cloudhq-mkt9.net/mail_track/link/a75750870fa09981d1_1613160358051?uid=226430&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftechnologyreview.us11.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D47c1a9cec9749a8f8cbc83e78%26id%3Ddcc21ea0cd%26e%3D4866eb5609" style="color:#9933cc;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">Woodrow Bledsoe</a> first attempted the task of matching suspects’ faces to mugshots. He measured out the distances between different facial features in printed photographs and fed them into a computer program. His rudimentary successes would set off decades of research into teaching machines to recognize human faces.<br>
<br>
Now <a href="https://www.cloudhq-mkt9.net/mail_track/link/a75750870fa09981d1_1613160358051?uid=226430&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftechnologyreview.us11.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D47c1a9cec9749a8f8cbc83e78%26id%3D6529063f12%26e%3D4866eb5609" style="color:#9933cc;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">a new study</a> shows just how much this enterprise has eroded our privacy. It hasn’t just enabled an increasingly powerful tool of surveillance. The latest generation of deep learning-based facial recognition has also completely disrupted our norms of consent.<br>

Deborah Raji, a fellow at nonprofit Mozilla, and Genevieve Fried, who advises US Congress members on algorithmic accountability, examined over 130 of these data sets compiled across 43 years. They found that researchers gradually abandoned asking for people’s consent to meet the exploding data requirements of deep learning. This has led to more and more of people’s personal photos being unknowingly incorporated into systems of surveillance.<br>
<br>
It has also led to far messier datasets, like those that unintentionally include photos of minors, use racist and sexist labels, or have inconsistent quality and lighting. The trend could help explain the growing number of high-stakes failures of facial recognition systems, such as the <a href="https://www.cloudhq-mkt9.net/mail_track/link/a75750870fa09981d1_1613160358051?uid=226430&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftechnologyreview.us11.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D47c1a9cec9749a8f8cbc83e78%26id%3D43aac86e13%26e%3D4866eb5609" style="color:#9933cc;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">false arrests of two Black men</a> in the Detroit area last year.<br>
<br>
People were extremely cautious about collecting, documenting, and verifying face data in the early days, says Raji. “Now we don’t care anymore. All of that has been abandoned,” she says. “You just can't keep track of a million faces. After a certain point, you can’t even pretend that you have control.” <strong>Read the full story <a href="https://www.cloudhq-mkt9.net/mail_track/link/a75750870fa09981d1_1613160358051?uid=226430&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftechnologyreview.us11.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D47c1a9cec9749a8f8cbc83e78%26id%3D6a460aad0d%26e%3D4866eb5609" style="color:#9933cc;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">here</a>.</strong>

A number of studies have shown that racist feedback loops can arise if algorithms are <a href="https://www.cloudhq-mkt9.net/mail_track/link/a75750870fa09981d1_1613160358051?uid=226430&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftechnologyreview.us11.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D47c1a9cec9749a8f8cbc83e78%26id%3Dc2b57b1e78%26e%3D4866eb5609" style="color:#9933cc;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">trained on police data</a>, such as arrests. Police are known to arrest more people in Black and other minority neighborhoods, which leads algorithms to direct more policing to those areas, which leads to more arrests.<br>
<br>
In their defence, many developers of predictive policing tools say that they have started using victim reports to get a more accurate picture of crime rates across different neighborhoods. In theory victim reports should be less biased because they aren’t affected by police prejudice or feedback loops.<br>
<br>
But new research shows that training predictive tools in a way claimed to lessen bias has little effect. Nil-Jana Akpinar and Alexandra Chouldechova at Carnegie Mellon University built their own predictive algorithm, trained on victim report data, using the same model found in several popular tools, including PredPol, the most widely used system in the US.<br>
<br>
When they compared their tool’s predictions against actual crime data for each district they found that it made significant errors. For example, in a district where few crimes were reported, the tool only predicted around 20% of the actual hotspots—locations with a high rate of crime. On the other hand, in a district with a high number of reports, the tool predicted 20% more hotspots than there really were. <strong>Read more <a href="https://www.cloudhq-mkt9.net/mail_track/link/a75750870fa09981d1_1613160358051?uid=226430&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftechnologyreview.us11.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D47c1a9cec9749a8f8cbc83e78%26id%3D7eb6ebd5e1%26e%3D4866eb5609" style="color:#9933cc;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">here</a>.</strong>

Pretraining is a phase in which an AI learns some basic skills before being trained on more specialized data. A system for diagnosing medical scans might first learn to identify basic visual features like shapes and outlines by pretraining on ImageNet, for example, a database with more than 14 million photos of everyday objects. Then it will be fine-tuned on a smaller database of medical images until it recognises subtle signs of disease.<br>
<br><span>The trouble is, assembling a dataset like ImageNet takes a lot of time and effort. It could also embed racism and sexism and include images of people without their consent. Fractal patterns, by contrast, don’t suffer these issues, and can be found in everything from trees and flowers to clouds and waves. So the researchers created FractalDB, an endless number of computer-generated fractals, and used it to pre-trained their algorithm before fine-tuning it with a set of actual images. They found that it performed almost as well as models trained on state-of-the-art datasets like ImageNet. </span><strong>Read more <a href="https://www.cloudhq-mkt9.net/mail_track/link/a75750870fa09981d1_1613160358051?uid=226430&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftechnologyreview.us11.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D47c1a9cec9749a8f8cbc83e78%26id%3D8f56aa2d15%26e%3D4866eb5609" style="color:#9933cc;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">here</a>.</strong>
