Trustworthy Machine Learning Lab

Artifical Intelligence and Machine Learning models have been widely accessible with significant advancements on hardware and improvements of training methods on large datasets. With prevalent usage and deployment on various real-life applications bring trustworthiness issues as such systems make decisions that impact our lives.

As the Trustworthy Machine Learning  Lab, we investigate a wide range of trustworhiness dimensions such as stereotype biases, fairness, domain knowledge gain, explainability, privacy, safety and robustness.
