Results for "high-risk"

High-Risk AI System

Intermediate

AI used in sensitive domains requiring compliance.

High-risk AI systems are types of artificial intelligence that can have serious consequences if they fail. For example, AI used in medical devices or self-driving cars is considered high-risk because mistakes could harm people. Because of this, there are strict rules that these systems must follo...

A branch of ML using multi-layer neural networks to learn hierarchical representations, often excelling in vision, speech, and language.

Deep Learning
Overfitting Intermediate

When a model fits noise/idiosyncrasies of training data and performs poorly on unseen data.

Foundations & Theory
Underfitting Intermediate

When a model cannot capture underlying structure, performing poorly on both training and test data.

Foundations & Theory
Accuracy Intermediate

Fraction of correct predictions; can be misleading on imbalanced datasets.

Foundations & Theory
Specificity Intermediate

Of true negatives, the fraction correctly identified.

Foundations & Theory
Log Loss Intermediate

Penalizes confident wrong predictions heavily; standard for classification and language modeling.

Optimization
Neural Network Intermediate

A parameterized function composed of interconnected units organized in layers with nonlinear activations.

Retrieval based on embedding similarity rather than keyword overlap, capturing paraphrases and related concepts.

Foundations & Theory
Grounding Intermediate

Constraining outputs to retrieved or provided sources, often with citation, to improve factual reliability.

Foundations & Theory
Inter-Annotator Agreement Intermediate

Measure of consistency across labelers; low agreement indicates ambiguous tasks or poor guidelines.

Foundations & Theory
Model Governance Intermediate

Policies and practices for approving, monitoring, auditing, and documenting models in production.

Governance & Ethics

How many requests or tokens can be processed per unit time; affects scalability and cost.

Transformers & LLMs
Compute Intermediate

Hardware resources used for training/inference; constrained by memory bandwidth, FLOPs, and parallelism.

Foundations & Theory
Automation Bias Intermediate

Tendency to trust automated suggestions even when incorrect; mitigated by UI design, training, and checks.

Foundations & Theory
Memory Intermediate

Mechanisms for retaining context across turns/sessions: scratchpads, vector memories, structured stores.

Foundations & Theory
Variance Term Intermediate

Error due to sensitivity to fluctuations in the training dataset.

AI Economics & Strategy
Segmentation Intermediate

Assigning labels per pixel (semantic) or per instance (instance segmentation) to map object boundaries.
