Lecture 4 (September 10, 2020) 
This lecture is on the bias of data. It follows Torralba ''et al.''<ref name="torralba2011unbiased"></ref>
;Will big data solve all our problems? 
E.g. Can (big company) just dump millions of dollars to collect data and solve any problem? 
No. E.g. COVID. 
There will always be new tasks or problems.
===We will never have enough data===
Long tails - Zipf's law
===Data is biased===
Types of visual bias:
* Observer Bias (human vs bird)
* Capture Bias (photographer vs robot)
* Selection Bias (Flickr vs Google Street View)
* Category/Label Bias
* Negative Set Bias
In general, all datasets will have all of these biases mixed in.
* Social Bias
Graduation photos always have a certain structure.
