Summary
This topic focuses on the security of AI systems.
Detailed Call Description
Proposals received under this topic will address the security of AI systems, in the line with the following considerations. The availability of very large amounts of data, together with advances in computing capacity, has allowed the development of powerful Artificial Intelligence applications (in particular Machine Learning and Deep Learning). At the same time, concerns have been raised over the security, robustness of the AI algorithms (including AI at the edge), including the risks of adversarial machine learning and data poisoning. Thus, it is important to promote security-compliant AI algorithms, leading to possible certification schemes in the future.
Proposals should demonstrate awareness of the EU approach on Artificial Intelligence, such as the proposed Artificial Intelligence Act.
