Welcome to the People and Data-centric Computing Research at Simon Fraser University. We're very excited to have this blog to share some of our work with you!

The PADComp team conducts research at the intersection of human-computer interaction and machine learning. We focus on questions related to people and data that fuel artificial intelligence techinologies. We seek to understand the relationship between human and AI, empower people to control how their data is used and ensure that AI is used responsibly.

This blogs serves as a platform to share our current research and insights from current hot topics in the field.

We're also very excited to announce our initial research team, supervised by Dr. Nicholas Vincent.
