• Company: Automated Detection of Electoral Discrimination

    Yacine Allam, a researcher at aivancity, has developed an AI project to analyze the electoral discrimination faced by candidates of North African descent during municipal elections in France.

    The project uses a toponymic classifier to determine the geographic origin of first names and analyzes the impact of this origin on election results using machine learning models.

    Legal and ethical issues include data privacy and the need to avoid discrimination based on ethnic origin. This project helps raise awareness of the importance of equitable representation and strategies to combat inequality.
