dashi: A Python library for Dataset Shift Characterization to Support Trustworthy AI Development and Deployment 文章

arXiv:2605.31360v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The Artificial Intelligence (AI) life cycle requires a thorough understanding of the underlying data dynamics for robust, safe and cost-effective AI development and use. Dataset shifts are defined as changes between train and test data distributions. Whether occurring over time (temporal) or across different sites (multi-source), they can severely degrade model performance and compromise data quality. This is particularly important in health AI, where the safety and fundamental rights of patients can be severely affected by uncontrolled shifts both at training and operational stages. While the theoretical foundations of covariate, prior, and concept shifts are well established, there is a lack of accessible and comprehensive software tools to perform their analysis. We introduce dashi, an open-source Python library designed for the exploration, quantification, and characterization of dataset shifts.
