Research Interests
My research aims to study the relationship between the two common pillars of human ethics, i.e., Privacy and Fairness in Machine Learning. Coming from an Information Theory background, I tend first to identify the impact of one on another, quantify the interaction between two objective functions and ultimately propose mitigation techniques that consider both objectives. The primary application I am focused on is Geospatial datasets due to their significance in elections and fund allocation.
