Camille A. Harris
I’m a 5th year PhD student at the Georgia Institute of Technology in the Interactive Computing program. I’m advised by Diyi Yang in the SALT Lab and Neha Kumar in the Tandem Lab. My research involves using mixed-methods to understand and mitigate biases and harms towards underrepresented and low-resource languages and dialects in natural language processing tasks. Beyond that, I am broadly interested in research exploring marginalized groups and their experiences with social media, AI systems, and algorithmic bias.
My work is supported by the Ford Foundation Predoctoral Fellowship, the GEM Fellowship and the Amazon Consumer Robotics Research Grant. My research has recieved awards such as Recognition for Diversity and Inclusion from ACM Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW 2023) and Best Student Paper Award from Equity and Access in Algorithms, Mechanisms, and Optimization (EAAMO 2021).
Previously I held internship positions at IBM Research on the Tech for Justice Teamthe algorithm fairness research team at Snap Inc. and an intern at Adobe Research. Prior to my beginning my PhD I earned a Bachelor’s in Computer Science at the University of California Berkeley, go Bears!
