タイトル: Weighted Automata Extraction from Recurrent Neural Networks via Regression on State Spaces
発表者：関山太郎, 助教, NII
概要：
We present a method to extract a weighted finite automaton (WFA) from a recurrent neural network (RNN). Our algorithm is based on the WFA learning algorithm by Balle and Mohri, which is in turn an extension of Angluin's classic \lstar algorithm. Our technical novelty is in the use of regression methods for the so-called equivalence queries, thus exploiting the internal state space of an RNN. This way we achieve a quantitative extension of the recent work by Weiss, Goldberg and Yahav that extracts DFAs. Experiments demonstrate that our algorithm's practicality.

「システム思考で考える複雑システムの安全とSTAMP」
STAMP for complex system safety design based on systems theory
AI・IoT時代の複雑システムの安全は、従来の安全規格の範囲で守ることはできない。故障がなくても事故は起きるということを前提に安全設計をしないといけない。この背景と、そのための方法論の一つとして期待されているSTAMPの考え方を述べる。

Title: Machine Learning Software is Still Software
Abstract:
Machine Learning (ML) is the discipline that studies methods for automatically
inferring models from data. Machine learning has been successfully applied in
many areas of software engineering ranging from behaviour extraction, to
testing, to bug fixing. However, there is comparatively less research on applying
software engineering techniques to designing and implementing machine
learning applications.
Machine learning techniques disrupt the traditional models of software
development and call for quicker, if not immediate, response from requirements
engineering (RE). Indeed, the social underpinning and the increasing reliance on
software systems for every aspect of our life, call for better methods to
understand the impact and implications of software solutions on the wellbeing of
individuals and society as a whole. The intrinsic ability of RE to deal with
conflicts, negotiation, and its traditional focus on tackling those wicked problems
is highly beneficial.
The seminar will review and reflect on the synergies between machine learning
and software engineering. In this seminar, I will introduce the principles of
machine learning, give an overview of some key methods, and present examples
of interaction between software engineering and machine learning. I will also
discuss some open challenges on how machine learning can benefit from
software engineering methods in general and requirements engineering in
particular.

Title: Adapting SQuaRE for Quality Assessment of Artificial Intelligence Systems
Abstract:
More and more software practitioners are tackling towards industrial applications of artificial intelligence (AI) systems, especially those based on machine learning (ML). However, many of existing principles and approaches to traditional systems do not work effectively for the system behavior obtained by training not by logical design. In addition, unique kinds of requirements are emerging such as fairness and explainability. To provide clear guidance to understand and tackle these difficulties, we present an analysis on what quality concepts we should evaluate for AI systems. We base our discussion on ISO/IEC 25000 series, known as SQuaRE, and identify how it should be adapted for the unique nature of ML and Ethics guidelines for trustworthy AI from European Commission. We thus provide holistic insights for quality of AI systems by incorporating the ML nature and AI ethics to the traditional software quality concepts.
