Towards Understanding Machine Learning Testing in Practise

Visualisations drive all aspects of the Machine Learning (ML) Development Cycle but remain a vastly untapped resource by the research community. ML testing is a highly interactive and cognitive process which demands a human-in-the-loop approach. Besides writing tests for the code base, bulk of the evaluation requires application of domain...

Faulty or Ready? Handling Failures in Deep-Learning Computer Vision Models until Deployment: A Study of Practices, Challenges, and Needs

Handling failures in computer vision systems that rely on deep learning models remains a challenge. While an increasing number of methods for bug identification and correction are proposed, little is known about how practitioners actually search for failures in these models. We perform an empirical study to understand the goals and needs of...
