Track: Quality Aspects in Machine Learning, AI and Data Analytics
ABOUT
Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI), especially in machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL) and the underlying data engineering techniques, as well as their integration into software-based systems of all domains raises new challenges to engineering modern AI-based systems. This makes the investigation of quality aspects in machine learning, AI and data analytics an essential topic. AI-based systems are data-intensive, continuously evolving, and self-adapting, which leads to new constructive and analytical quality assurance approaches to guarantee their quality during development and operation in live environments. On the constructive side, for instance, new process models, requirements engineering approaches or continuous integration and deployment models like MLOps are needed. On the analytical side, for instance, new data, offline and online testing approaches are needed for AI-based systems.
TOPICS
In this track submissions on all topics on analytical and constructive quality aspects in machine learning, AI, and data analytics are welcome. In particular, the following topics are of interest:
Requirements engineering for AI-based systems
Analytical and constructive quality assurance for AI-based systems
System and software architecture of AI-based systems
Data management and quality for AI-based systems
