hi - I'm the person who extracted their facerec algo and ran the test - another problem is that they're pretending that it wasn't a problem.
See "fewer than five complaints" on the third/fourth paragraph of page 21 of this letter Proctorio sent to the senate [0].
From anecdotes from my circle of friends alone, I've heard at least 3, some correlated by race, and then seen many tweets from @Procteario about it, so I didn't buy it, ran it myself, and tada. bias.
Also, it's less of a "just train" problem and more of a "complete redesign" problem - HAAR cascades use greyscale images, which generally mean a loss in contrast and makes it difficult. You'd likely need a full color oneshot network, such as BlazeFace, to make it work.

- oxylibrium 5y agoThey... aren't doing that?
- runawaybottle 5y agoI see your point, but I feel like the non tech informed general public will extrapolate that there was intent to institute racial bias. However, now that we know what the issue is, ongoing inaction is racist.
