Notes from an All-Julia Honours Thesis
For my Honours thesis, I extended Udell et al.'s work in Generalised Low-Rank Models (GLRMs), making GLRMs a tool for projecting data sets to a "fair" space according to various definitions of fairness. This enables the identifying of features that may act as proxy discriminators for protected characteristics such as gender and age. In this talk, I will share my experience of completing a year-long thesis, using Julia as the primary programming language, from zero Julia knowledge.
