Modern machine learning (ML) increasingly relies on complex models whose behavior is difficult to characterize beyond empirical performance metrics. Across a wide range of tasks, including prediction, generation, and decision-making, models with similar empirical performance can exhibit markedly different properties in terms of their transparency, interpretability, robustness, fairness, privacy, and certifiability.
