CRM Applied Math Seminar, McGill University
My second seminar in Montréal! I was invited to present FairGGPR at the CRM Applied Mathematics Seminar at McGill University. I gave more or less the same talk I had presented at Concordia two weeks earlier, but this time I went a little deeper into the mathematical side of things.

I got a really interesting comment about the error coming from the Laplace approximation. That approximation error could potentially propagate through the rest of the model and affect the interpretation of the impact of different fairness interventions on the final predictions and uncertainty — definitely something I need to look into!
The seminar also happened right after Daniela Witten’s seminar conference dinner — so many ideas I enjoyed, plus pink slides and a Taylor Swift reference! Looking forward to the upcoming Written by Witten column.
Marie-Pier’s whole PhD team had also come down from Québec, so it was really nice to meet everyone and see Olivier again (and thanks to them for attending my seminar as well!).
