US: Using artificial intelligence to identify administrative errors in unemployment insurance

Submitted by pmassetti on Tue, 11/01/2022 - 17:28

Government Information Quarterly  (October 2022) Administrative errors in unemployment insurance (UI) decisions give rise to a public values conflict between efficiency and efficacy. We analyze whether artificial intelligence (AI) – in particular, methods in machine learning (ML) – can be used to detect administrative errors in UI claims decisions, both in terms of accuracy and normative tradeoffs. We use 16 years of US Department of Labor audit and policy data on UI claims to analyze the accuracy of 7 different random forest and deep learning models.

Big data et protection sociale : au-delà de la lutte contre la fraude, des opportunités à saisir pour améliorer l’accès aux droits

Submitted by pmassetti on Tue, 03/05/2019 - 16:23

Cairn.info  - Regards 2017/2 (N° 52)  En 2016, les Caisses d’allocations familiales (CAF) ont détecté près de 43 000 fraudes, soit 8 % de plus que l’année précédente, pour un montant de 275 millions d’euros. La Caisse nationale (CNAF) a expliqué cette hausse par l’accroissement de l’efficacité des dispositifs de contrôle et non par l’augmentation de la fraude elle-même. Ces résultats, ajoutés à ceux des années précédentes sont notamment liés au développement du data mining, un procédé qui repose sur le big data.

The Project - Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development

Submitted by ruggia on Mon, 07/30/2018 - 17:43

The ongoing digital transformation of economies and societies holds many promises to spur innovation, generate efficiencies, and improve services, and in doing so boost more inclusive and sustainable growth as well as enhance well-being. But these benefits go hand-in-hand with disruptions. Our interactions with one another and with society more broadly are being transformed, as are the nature and structure of organisations and markets, raising important issues around jobs and skills, privacy, security, and how to ensure that technological changes benefit society as a whole, among others.
