Applying Responsible AI with Open-Source Tools

Abstract: 

While there's a lot of work done on defining the risks, goals, and policies for Responsible AI, less is known about what you can apply today to build safe, fair, and reliable models. This session introduces open-source tools and examples of using them in real-world projects - for addressing four common challenges.

The first is robustness - testing & improving a model's ability to handle accidental or intentional minor changes in input that can uncover model fragility and failure points. The second is the detection & fixing of labeling errors, which provide an upper limit to accuracy and exist in most widely used datasets. The third is bias - testing that a model performs equally across gender, age, race, ethnicity, or other critical groups. The fourth is data leakage, in particular in combination with leakage caused by using personally identifiable information in training data.

This session is intended for data science practitioners and leaders who need to know what they can & should do today to build AI systems that work safety & correctly in the real world.

Background Knowledge:

Basic familiarity with machine learning is assumed.
