Computing Platforms for Trustworthy, Responsible AI in Financial Services

Computing Platforms for Trustworthy, Responsible AI in Financial Services
Limited data access continues to be a barrier to data-driven product development. In this talk, we explore if and how generative adversarial networks (GANs) can be used to incentivize data sharing by enabling a generic framework for sharing synthetic datasets with minimal expert knowledge.

Model Validation and Machine Learning

Model Validation and Machine Learning
Dr. Agus Sudjianto focused the discussion on machine learning explainability and robustness. Explainability is critical to evaluate conceptual soundness of models particularly for the applications in highly regulated institutions such as banks. There are many explainability tools available and the focus in this talk is how to develop fundamentally interpretable models.
