Research from Carnegie Mellon University and Stanford University examines demographic bias in mobility data.

Join researchers Amanda Coston and Prof. Alexandra Chouldechova as they dive into the first independent audit of demographic bias of a smartphone-based mobility dataset (SafeGraph) used in the response to COVID-19. The researchers attempt to identify a sampling bias in the SafeGraph data that underrepresents high-risk groups.
