Robustness Measurement
Robustness measurement in machine learning aims to quantify a model's resistance to various perturbations, ensuring reliable performance in real-world scenarios. Current research focuses on developing both local and global robustness metrics, employing techniques like probabilistic verification, contrast set analysis, and comparisons against foundation models to assess model consistency and accuracy under diverse conditions. These efforts are crucial for improving the reliability and trustworthiness of machine learning systems across applications, particularly in high-stakes domains where model failures can have significant consequences. The development of robust models is increasingly important for building reliable and trustworthy AI systems.
