Abstract:
In this workshop, Aparna will present a talk on how to operationalize responsible AI using machine learning observability techniques: notably with explainability – she will look at how to use statistical distance checks to monitor features and model output in production, how to analyze the effects of the changes on models and how to use explainability techniques to determine if issues are model or data related. The first step in better understanding how to manage responsible AI is model transparency. Understand and explain how models arrive at specific outcomes for any cohort of predictions and implement ML Observability into your ML workflow.
Secondly, this workshop will include a panel discussion. Engage with unique perspectives on how to approach responsible AI from an operational standpoint. Join major thought leaders championing responsible, fair, and ethical AI. Armed with a diverse array of educational and professional backgrounds, this discussion will uncover actionable insights into how to approach responsible AI from the ground up.
What You’ll Learn:
– Learn about ML Observability: how to troubleshoot, monitor, and explain models in production
– A deep dive into explainability and common explainability techniques at the global, cohort, and local level
– An understanding of common explainability use cases and how explainability can help detect bias issues in models
– A chat about ML fairness, new research, and how to make sure your models aren’t acting in discriminatory ways – operationalizng AI Ethics
Aparna Dhinakaran is Chief Product Officer at Arize AI; a startup focused on ML Observability. She was previously an ML engineer at Uber, Apple, and Tubemogul (acquired by Adobe). During her time at Uber, she built several core ML Infrastructure platforms, including Michaelangelo. She has a bachelor’s from Berkeley’s Electrical Engineering and Computer Science program, where she published research with Berkeley’s AI Research group.
