How do human biases make their way into these data models, and what new strategies have been proposed to overcome bias in computed products?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScholars and students from many backgrounds, as well as policy makers, journalists, and the general reading public will find a multidisciplinary approach to inquiry into algorithmic bias encompassing research from Communication, Art, and New Media.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMichael Filimowicz\u003c\/strong\u003e is Senior Lecturer in the School of Interactive Arts and Technology (SIAT) at Simon Fraser University.
