Algorithmic Bias in Municipal Resource Allocation
A quantitative analysis of how automated resource distribution systems in three major metropolitan areas inadvertently reinforce historical redlining boundaries.
I am a Professor of Computational Sociology and Director of the Algorithmic Ethics Lab. My research explores how large-scale data systems influence social stratification and community resilience in urban environments.
Currently, I am investigating the long-term impacts of predictive policing algorithms on neighborhood cohesion. My work aims to provide policymakers with data-driven frameworks for more equitable technological governance.
