AI-generated faces influence gender stereotypes and racial homogenization.

Scientific reports
Text-to-image generative AI models such as Stable Diffusion are used daily by millions worldwide. However, the extent to which these models exhibit racial and gender stereotypes is not yet fully understood. Here, we document significant biases in Sta...

Why robot embodiment matters: questions of disability, race and intersectionality in the design of social robots.

Medical humanities
A growing minority of those with disabilities are people of color (POC), with, for example, autism diagnosis rates now higher for children of color than for white children in the USA. This trend underscores the need for assistive technologies, especi...

Contextualized race and ethnicity annotations for clinical text from MIMIC-III.

Scientific data
Observational health research often relies on accurate and complete race and ethnicity (RE) patient information, such as characterizing cohorts, assessing quality/performance metrics of hospitals and health systems, and identifying health disparities...

Addressing hidden risks: Systematic review of artificial intelligence biases across racial and ethnic groups in cardiovascular diseases.

European journal of radiology
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI)-based models are increasingly being integrated into cardiovascular medicine. Despite promising potential, racial and ethnic biases remain a key concern regarding the development and implementation of AI models...

XGBoost as a reliable machine learning tool for predicting ancestry using autosomal STR profiles - Proof of method.

Forensic science international. Genetics
The aim of this study was to test the validity of a predictive model of ancestry affiliation based on Short Tandem Repeat (STR) profiles. Frequencies of 29 genetic markers from the Promega website for four distinct population groups (African American...

Representation of intensivists' race/ethnicity, sex, and age by artificial intelligence: a cross-sectional study of two text-to-image models.

Critical care (London, England)
BACKGROUND: Integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into intensive care practices can enhance patient care by providing real-time predictions and aiding clinical decisions. However, biases in AI models can undermine diversity, equity, and inclusion ...

Evaluating machine learning model bias and racial disparities in non-small cell lung cancer using SEER registry data.

Health care management science
BACKGROUND: Despite decades of pursuing health equity, racial and ethnic disparities persist in healthcare in America. For cancer specifically, one of the leading observed disparities is worse mortality among non-Hispanic Black patients compared to n...

Prediction and clustering of Alzheimer's disease by race and sex: a multi-head deep-learning approach to analyze irregular and heterogeneous data.

Scientific reports
Early detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is crucial to maximize clinical outcomes. Most disease progression analyses include people with diagnoses of cognitive impairment, limiting understanding of AD risk among those with normal cognition. The ob...

Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Predictive Accuracy of Machine Learning Algorithms Developed Using a National Database for 30-Day Complications Following Total Joint Arthroplasty.

The Journal of arthroplasty
BACKGROUND: While predictive capabilities of machine learning (ML) algorithms for hip and knee total joint arthroplasty (TJA) have been demonstrated in previous studies, their performance in racial and ethnic minority patients has not been investigat...

Rule-based natural language processing to examine variation in worsening heart failure hospitalizations by age, sex, race and ethnicity, and left ventricular ejection fraction.

American heart journal
BACKGROUND: Prior studies characterizing worsening heart failure events (WHFE) have been limited in using structured healthcare data from hospitalizations, and with little exploration of sociodemographic variation. The current study examined the impa...
