DSRC Seminar | Trustworthy AI: Some Thoughts and Progress

Abstract

Deep neural networks are dominating in various perception and cognition tasks of artificial intelligence (AI), but are heavily relying on large data training, and lacking in robustness, explainability and adaptability. Thus, AI applications in open environment still pose challenges, especially for scenarios with high reliability. In this talk, I will overview the status and limitations of current AI technology, and introduce some progress toward robust and trustworthy AI, including the works in explainable models, robust models, adaptation and confident learning. Finally, show the prospects of research in this direction.
