Paula Navarrete Díaz
I am a third-year Computer Science PhD student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, advised by Yair Zick and conducting research at the Fair and Explainable Decision Making (FED) lab. My research focuses on the course allocation and chore division problems, and my research interests include Fair Division, Algorithmic Fairness, and Algorithm design and implementation.
Prior to joining UMass, I received my BS and MS in Mathematical Engineering at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, where I was advised by Rodrigo Cienfuegos during my MS. Later, I served as adjunct faculty at the same university, and worked as a researcher at CIGIDEN.
More recently, I was a Summer 2024 Data Science for the Common Good reserch fellow, at the UMass Amherst Center for Data Science.
