Advanced Signal Processing Techniques for IoT Applications in Smart Cities

Choudhury, S.M., Ahmed, R., Karim, M., & Hassan, S.

IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, Vol. 71, pp. 1234-1248, 2023

Read Abstract

This paper addresses the disparities in automated diagnosis systems across different demographic groups. We propose a novel adversarial debiasing technique that improves accuracy by 15% in underrepresented populations without sacrificing overall performance.
