CKIDS Special Data Science Seminar
Reproducibility in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science
Prof Odd Erik Gundersen
Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU)
Time: Monday, September 23, 2019, 4pm – 5pm
Location: RTH 115
Abstract: First, we need a common understanding of what reproducibility is. Then, I will talk about some of the challenges we face related to reproducing empirical AI research and give some examples of studies that have tried to reproduce results from AI and machine learning. Having this understanding we can identify what we need to do to improve the reproducibility of our own experiments.
