Model Degradation

Model degradation, the decline in a machine learning model's performance over time, is a critical challenge hindering the reliable deployment of AI systems. Current research focuses on understanding and mitigating degradation through methods like explanatory performance estimation to pinpoint root causes (e.g., data drift, feature shifts), developing robust training techniques to improve resilience against adversarial attacks and data corruption, and employing adaptive strategies for continuous monitoring and real-time adjustments on deployed models. Addressing model degradation is crucial for ensuring the trustworthiness and longevity of AI applications across various domains, from healthcare to autonomous systems.
