Why do AI Models go Rogue? A Guide to Detect and Fix Silent Model Failures

Virtual | Business Talk | Cross Industry | Intermediate

 

On average, most generative models are truthful only 25% of the time, according to Stanford Artificial Intelligence Index Report 2022 . The downstream impact is not just limited to ML or business teams as it trickles down to the end customer who faces the first-hand repercussions of inaccurate and incorrect predictions. With the adoption of AI Observability tools, pioneering tech giants have managed to quickly catch model issues, diagnose root causes, and perform continuous improvement to optimize the model’s performance…more details

Botnets detection at scale – Lesson learned from clustering billions of web attacks into botnets.

Virtual | Talk | Machine Learning | Deep Learning | Intermediate

 

A common problem in the cybersecurity industry is how to detect and track botnets when there are billions of daily attacks. Botnets are internet connected devices that perform repetitive tasks, such as Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS). In many cases, these consumer devices are infected with malicious malware that is controlled by an external entity, often without the owner’s knowledge…more details

Iterated and Exponentially Weighted Moving Principal Component Analysis

Virtual | Talk | Machine Learning for Finance | All Levels

 

The principal component analysis (PCA) is a staple statistical and unsupervised machine learning technique in finance. The application of PCA in a financial setting is associated with several difficulties, such as numerical instability and nonstationarity. We attempt to resolve them by proposing two new variants of PCA: an iterated principal component analysis (IPCA) and an exponentially weighted moving principal component analysis (EWMPCA). Both variants rely on the Ogita-Aishima iteration as a crucial step…more details
