Let’s dive into AI systems! How can we enhance efficiency, build trustworthiness, and fully leverage data? What shifts when we operate across the cloud-edge continuum (CEC)? And how will the AI Act shape these advancements?
On November 4th-5th, 2024, five sister projects—AI-DAPT, EXTRA-BRAIN, MANOLO, PANDORA, and RAIDO—are co-organising a workshop titled “Achieving Efficient and Trustworthy AI in the Cloud-Edge Continuum,” as part of the #ADRF24 event.
These projects have united to tackle these critical questions, highlighting the needs and challenges of efficient and trustworthy AI in the CEC. The event will feature a panel of leading experts from both academia and industry, sharing insights on how to turn these goals into reality.
In collaboration with the dynamic AI community, the workshop will spotlight practical limitations and key enablers for achieving efficient, trustworthy AI across the cloud-edge continuum. Topics will include data quality, monitoring, benchmarking, explainable AI, self-adaptation, user trust, and environmental impact.
Finally, the workshop will examine how the AI Act will influence the implementation and deployment of AI systems in the cloud-edge continuum, focusing on both technical and legal implications.
Short description (1 line):
Five EU-funded research projects discuss on how to achieve efficient trustworthy AI in the cloud-edge continuum
Specific, action-oriented workshop purpose:
- Raise awareness on AI systems in the Cloud-Edge Continuum
- Inform and discuss challenges related to improving efficiency of AI systems while considering their environmental footprint.
- Address the technical dimension of ensuring trustworthiness in AI systems, especially in the cloud-edge continuum
- Touch upon data quality, monitoring and benchmarking needs and challenges for efficient trustworthy AI
The workshop will feature presentations by project coordinators and legal experts from our sister projects, and participants will have the chance to exchange knowledge with them through polls and Q&A sessions.
Predefined questions to be discussed and answered in the workshop:
- Q1: What are the main challenges when you try to improve AI Models/Systems’ efficiency ?
- Q2: How does the cloud-edge continuum facilitate the process of improving AI models/systems’ efficiency?
- Q3: How can we make the best out of data in the cloud-edge continuum for efficient trustworthy AI?
- Q4: What strategies can be used to continuously monitor and benchmark to ensure self-adaptive AI systems in the cloud-edge continuum?
- Q5: How can you implement trustworthiness in practice across the cloud-edge?
- Q6: How can you ensure that AI models remain transparent to stakeholders in cloud-edge infrastructures to foster their trust?
- Q7: How do you support the implementation of the AI Act through your activities?
