Fairness in automated decision-making – Baden-Württemberg Stiftung funds new project by Professor Frauke Kreuter, Dr. Ruben Bach and Dr. Christoph Kern

The Baden-Württemberg Stiftung has granted funding for the project A2.2011 "Fairness in Automated Decision-Making—FairADM" by Professor Frauke Kreuter, Dr. Ruben Bach and Dr. Christoph Kern.

The project systematically investigates and classifies ADM practices in the German public sector, integrating previous research on algorithmic fairness with a sociological perspective on inequality and discrimination. To this end, the project develops an ADM system based on labour market data and evaluates it regarding different fairness aspects.
