AI Metrology: Ensuring the Reliability of Artificial Intelligence
Currently, we are witnessing the “Age of AI,” where artificial intelligence (AI) is playing a major role in every aspect of our lives. As AI permeates our daily lives, the need for rigorous measurement and evaluation of AI systems becomes increasingly imperative. This talk delves into the emerging field of AI metrology, which aims to establish standardized methods for assessing the accuracy, reliability, and trustworthiness of AI models. We explore various perspectives on AI and discuss the challenges and opportunities associated with quantifying its effectiveness. By examining specific applications in healthcare and manufacturing, we highlight how AI can enhance metrology practices and contribute to more reliable and trustworthy AI-driven solutions. Key topics include uncertainty quantification, neuro-symbolic computing, and applications of AI for metrology in health care and manufacturing.
