Biography

Eamon Duede is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Purdue University, with a joint appointment in the Data Science and Learning Division at Argonne National Laboratory. His theoretical work in the philosophy of science focuses on the epistemology of emerging technologies, principally artificial intelligence (AI). His empirical work investigates and evaluates roles and capabilities of AI in enhancing the effectiveness and scalability of innovative, data-driven, and algorithm-assisted operational frameworks for scientific discovery. Eamon is also concerned with the dynamics of discovery across disciplines, geographic space, and time. Here, he uses the computational techniques of data science to study the flow of knowledge and influence between communities of experts and other audiences, and studies how these can be catalyzed or stymied by institutional and technological factors.
