[Abstract]
Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems become deployed into practical and safety-critical systems that interact with humans due to their great achievements in performance. However, careless deployment raises concerns due to untrusting behaviors of AI systems. In particular, a small untrustworthy AI component leads to catastrophic consequences of a large AI system.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems become deployed into practical and safety-critical systems that interact with humans due to their great achievements in performance. However, careless deployment raises concerns due to untrusting behaviors of AI systems. In particular, a small untrustworthy AI component leads to catastrophic consequences of a large AI system.
In this talk, I will discuss my efforts on learning and quantifying the uncertainty of predictions from AI components and a composition of AI components to enhance the trustworthiness of entire AI systems. In particular, we consider a large AI system consisting of AI components where each AI component returns a conformal set. Here, a conformal set quantifies the uncertainty of predictions via a set of possible label predictions, where the set size represents predicted uncertainty and the conformal set comes with the correctness guarantee. We mainly consider the correctness guarantee of the system-wide conformal set predictions given guarantees on component-wise conformal set predictions. We demonstrate the feasibility of the compositional guarantee in the problem of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and the consensus problem of blockchain price oracles. In closing, I will discuss interesting research directions related to compositional conformal prediction.
