SUMMARY:Science is a verb: adopting the scientific method and best pra
 ctices in AI research\, Physics ∩ ML Seminar\, Michela Paganini\, Fa
 cebook AI Research
DESCRIPTION:While deep learning has been described as a largely empiri
 cal discipline\, where practice leads theory\, many of the approaches 
 of machine learning research don’t appear to be grounded in the rigo
 rous tradition of the empirical sciences. To understand the inner work
 ings of deep networks at a fundamental level\, these models ought to b
 e studied like physical objects that follow specific dynamics governed
  by laws of motion\, and examined with the tools of the scientific met
 hod\, to ensure we not only understand effect\, but also begin to unde
 rstand cause\, which is the raison d'être of science. In the context 
 of AI fairness and pruning\, I’ll show examples of how hypothesis te
 sting\, reproducible workflows\, and careful experiment design can hel
 p validate or refute hypotheses.
