Elon Law Professor Michael Rich is featured in a journal devoted to identifying "the best new scholarship relevant to the law" for his forthcoming University of Pennsylvania Law Review article on law enforcement's use of "big data."
JOTWELL, a journal devoted to identifying “the best new scholarship relevant to the law” spotlights Elon Law Professor Michael Rich’s article “Machine Learning, Automated Suspicion Algorithms, and the Fourth Amendment” forthcoming in the University of Pennsylvania Law Review.
JOTWELL reviews Rich’s article together with a publication by law scholar Andrew G. Ferguson.
“These two excellent pieces demonstrate the need to think about the inevitable widespread use of big data by the police in a systematic and reflective way, before the reality on the ground gets too far ahead of the law that is meant to govern it,” JOTWELL editor Elizabeth Joh writes.
