Underspecification Presents Challenges for Credibility in Modern Machine Learning

Alexander D'Amour, Katherine Heller, Dan Moldovan +37

ML models often exhibit unexpectedly poor behavior when they are deployed in real-world domains. We identify underspecification as a key reason for these failures. An ML pipeline i…
