The is particularly true in the area of precision medicine, where models trained in homogeneous populations largely fail to generalize to diverse samples. Eg work by @bttyeo.bsky.social and others. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Cross-ethnicity/race generalization failure of behavioral prediction from resting-state functional connectivity
fMRI-based machine learning models predict behavioral measures biasedly against African Americans.
