EAM Diagrams - A Framework to Systematically Describe AI Systems for Effective AI Risk Assessment (Academic Track)

Authors: Ronald Schnitzer, Andreas Hapfelmeier, and Sonja Zillner

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 126, Symposium on Scaling AI Assessments (SAIA 2024)


Abstract
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a transformative technology that offers new opportunities across various applications. However, the capabilities of AI systems introduce new risks, which require the adaptation of established risk assessment procedures. A prerequisite for any effective risk assessment is a systematic description of the system under consideration, including its inner workings and application environment. Existing system description methodologies are only partially applicable to complex AI systems, as they either address only parts of the AI system, such as datasets or models, or do not consider AI-specific characteristics at all. In this paper, we present a novel framework called EAM Diagrams for the systematic description of AI systems, gathering all relevant information along the AI life cycle required to support a comprehensive risk assessment. The framework introduces diagrams on three levels, covering the AI system’s environment, functional inner workings, and the learning process of integrated Machine Learning (ML) models.

Poster Abstract
Evolutionary Algorithms for One-Sided Bipartite Crossing Minimisation (Poster Abstract)

Authors: Jakob Baumann, Ignaz Rutter, and Dirk Sudholt

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 320, 32nd International Symposium on Graph Drawing and Network Visualization (GD 2024)


Abstract
Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are universal solvers inspired by principles of natural evolution. In many applications, EAs produce astonishingly good solutions. To complement recent theoretical advances in the analysis of EAs on graph drawing [Baumann et al., 2024], we contribute a fundamental empirical study. We consider the so-called One-Sided Bipartite Crossing Minimisation (OBCM): given two layers of a bipartite graph and a fixed horizontal order of vertices on the first layer, the task is to order the vertices on the second layer to minimise the number of edge crossings. We empirically analyse the performance of simple EAs for OBCM and compare different mutation operators on the underlying permutation ordering problem: exchanging two elements (exchange), swapping adjacent elements (swap) and jumping an element to a new position (jump). EAs using jumps easily outperform all deterministic algorithms in terms of solution quality after a reasonable number of generations. We also design variations of the best-performing EAs to reduce the execution time for each generation. The improved EAs can obtain the same solution quality as before and run up to 100 times faster.

Runtime Analysis of Binary PSO

Authors: Dirk Sudholt and Carsten Witt

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8051, Theory of Evolutionary Algorithms (2008)


Abstract
We investigate the runtime of the Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm introduced by Kennedy and Eberhart (1997). The Binary PSO maintains a global best solution and a swarm of particles. Each particle consists of a current position, an own best position and a velocity vector used in a probabilistic process to update the particle's position. We present lower bounds for a broad class of implementations with swarms of polynomial size. To prove upper bounds, we transfer a fitness-level argument well-established for evolutionary algorithms (EAs) to PSO. This method is then applied to estimate the expected runtime on the class of unimodal functions. A simple variant of the Binary PSO is considered in more detail. The1-PSO only maintains one particle, hence own best and global best solutions coincide. Despite its simplicity, the 1-PSO is surprisingly efficient. A detailed analysis for the function Onemax shows that the 1-PSO is competitive to EAs.
