Artificial Intelligence

Ongoing research on how AI models represent heterogeneous human judgments, preferences, and systematic errors.

The institutional coverage highlights Cristian Candia’s presentation on agent architectures for scientific research.

Cristian Candia presented his agent-based research workflow at UDD’s Codex for Data Science workshop. Recording and materials available.

The project Collective Memory Decay in Science positions CRiSS-LAB around how science remembers, forgets, and corrects retracted knowledge.

La Tribuna profiled Cristian Candia after the CCS 2025 Best Lightning Talk Award for research on political polarization and artificial intelligence.

Cristian Candia was awarded Best Lightning Talk at the 21st Conference on Complex Systems in Siena, Italy, for Neural Network Nominate, a method for mapping mass political ideology from revealed preferences.

Award-winning lightning talk at the Conference on Complex Systems 2025 in Siena, presenting an interpretable neural-network approach to mapping mass political ideology from pairwise policy preferences.

UDD Engineering covered Cristian Candia’s participation at IC2S2 2025, where CRiSS-LAB presented work on computational social science, AI, design capabilities, political ideology, collective memory, and public procurement networks.

Course on clustering, dimensionality reduction, representation learning, topic models, anomaly detection, embeddings, and unsupervised workflows for behavioral and social data.

Cooperativa Ciencia covered Capybara and the CRiSS-LAB research behind AI-assisted tools for identifying cooperation patterns and preventing bullying in Chilean classrooms.

Training in large-scale behavioral data, social networks, experiments, AI, and theory-driven analysis of social systems.

Portal Innova and Portal Educa covered Capybara as a Chilean technology project for detecting and preventing bullying through game-based interaction, network science, and AI.

Radio Duna interviewed Cristian Candia about Discolab’s AI-assisted constitutional explorer and its role in making complex legal texts more accessible.

Discolab translated collaborative reading, ranking, and AI-assisted comparison into a public platform for understanding constitutional texts in Chile.

CRiSS-LAB, UDD, La Tercera, and partners launched Discolab to help citizens compare, summarize, discuss, and understand constitutional texts in Chile.

Public output of a collective memory and cultural analytics project, connecting Chilean music, attention, networks, repertoires, and AI-assisted exploration.

Ciencia en Chile published Cristian Esteban Candia Vallejos’ opinion column on automation, artificial intelligence, labor markets, and responsible technological adaptation.

Abstract: [ENG] Algorithmic matching is a pervasive mechanism in our social and economic lives, used for example in algorithmic job search engines, kidney transplant allocation algorithms, medical residency program allocation, and search engines for finding romantic partners and potential spouses.

UDD covered Lixandria, an AI-based platform created by Cristian Candia-Castro to help students and counselors explore broader academic alternatives in higher education.
