FAIRTOPIA three-layer architecture with agentic fairness guardrails

The EXCALIBUR Project is pleased to share that the conference paper “FAIRTOPIA: A Multi-agent Guardianship Framework for Disrupting Unfair AI Pipelines” is now published in the DaWaK 2026 proceedings.

The paper was authored by Athena Vakali, Ilias Dimitriadis, and Sofia Vei and was presented by Sofia Vei at DaWaK 2026, the 28th International Conference on Big Data Analytics and Knowledge Discovery, held in Graz, Austria.

FAIRTOPIA explores how multi-agent systems can support fairness across AI pipelines. The work proposes fairness guardrails that can help detect, guide, and improve decisions before unfair outcomes emerge.

This contribution is part of EXCALIBUR’s broader work on trustworthy, responsible, and human-centric AI.
