Title: Our Approach to Training, Testing and Validating Machine Learning Models is Broken
Abstract: Software engineering for machine learning based (MLB) systems is different from the methods used to design and code traditional systems. Notably, common methods for verification and testing of MLB systems are very different from traditional systems. I argue that the near ubiquitous data science method of train, test, validation is fundamentally broken. Research on adversarial machine learning highlights novel ways to both attack MLB systems and defend against those attacks. Some of these methods can be used to reveal hidden model flaws and highlight a lack of model robustness. I will highlight several ways in which we can use adversarial techniques to more fully test MLB systems.
