DESCRIPTION:Sandhya Saisubramanian\, Assistant Professor\nComputer Science\
 nOregon State University\n\nAbstract\nThe increased deployment of artificia
 l intelligence (AI) systems and their broad societal impacts brings along n
 ew challenges\, particularly ensuring that these systems operate reliably i
 n the open world. Reliability is critical in shaping how users will interac
 t and trust AI systems.  Despite recent advances in AI and machine learning
 \, it is challenging to assure that a system will always operate reliably\,
  when deployed. One of the causes of unreliable behavior is the imprecisene
 ss of the model used for decision-making. Regardless of how much effort goe
 s into system design and how much data is available for testing\, it is gen
 erally infeasible to obtain a perfect description of open-world environment
 s. This talk will focus on the inherent challenges and future directions fo
 r designing autonomous systems that can operate reliably in the presence of
  uncertainty and model imprecision.\n\nSpeaker Biography\nSandhya Saisubram
 anian is an incoming Assistant Professor in EECS at Oregon State University
 . She completed her Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Massac
 husetts Amherst in September 2021 and officially starts as a faculty at Ore
 gon State University in December 2021. Sandhya's research focuses on develo
 ping general techniques for reliable decision-making in autonomous systems 
 that operate in the open world. She is a recipient of Distinguished Paper A
 ward at IJCAI 2020 and was selected as a Rising Star in EECS by UC Berkeley
  in 2020.
