Albert Nyarko-Agyei works as part of the Rights Lab’s Measurement and Geographies Programme on research to estimate the prevalence of modern slavery. These projects use a mixture of classical and novel statistical approaches, including through comparative judgement data. Within the Rights Lab, he also has used state of the art Convolutional Neural Network training methods to detect brick kilns in India, as sites of forced labour, from satellite imagery. Albert brings a wealth of statistical and software knowledge to his work with Rights Lab data, has a Bachelors in Mathematics and Statistics from Warwick University and is completing a Masters in Machine Learning at the University of Nottingham.
