A Fog-Cloud Computing Infrastructure for Condition Monitoring and Distributing Industry 4.0 Services
(2019)
Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) seeks to enhance transparency and trust in AI systems. Evaluating the quality of XAI explanation methods remains challenging due to limitations in existing metrics. To address these issues, we propose a novel metric called Explanation Significance Assessment (ESA) and its extension, the Weighted Explanation Significance Assessment (WESA). These metrics offer a comprehensive evaluation of XAI explanations, considering spatial precision, focus overlap, and relevance accuracy. In this paper, we demonstrate the applicability of ESA and WESA on medical data. These metrics quantify the understandability and reliability of XAI explanations, assisting practitioners in interpreting AI-based decisions and promoting informed choices in critical domains like healthcare. Moreover, ESA and WESA can play a crucial role in AI certification, ensuring both accuracy and explainability. By evaluating the performance of XAI methods and underlying AI models, these metrics contribute to trustworthy AI systems. Incorporating ESA and WESA in AI certification efforts advances the field of XAI and bridges the gap between accuracy and interpretability. In summary, ESA and WESA provide comprehensive metrics to evaluate XAI explanations, benefiting research, critical domains, and AI certification, thereby enabling trustworthy and interpretable AI systems.
A Review on Digital Wallets and Federated Service for Future of Cloud Services Identity Management
(2023)
In today’s technology-driven era, managing digital identities has become a critical concern due to the widespread use of online services and digital devices. This has led to a fragmented landscape of digital identities, burdening individuals with multiple usernames, passwords, and authentication methods. To address this challenge, digital wallets have emerged as a promising solution. These wallets empower users to store, manage, and utilize their digital assets, including personal data, payment information, and credentials. Additionally, federated services have gained prominence, enabling users to access multiple services using a single digital identity. Gaia-X is an example of such a service, aiming to establish a secure and trustworthy data infrastructure. This paper examines digital identity management, focusing on the application of digital wallets and federated services. It explores the categorization of identities needed for different cloud services, considering their unique requirements and characteristics. Furthermore, it discusses the future requirements for digital wallets and federated identity management in the cloud, along with the associated challenges and benefits. The paper also introduces a categorization scheme for cloud services based on security and privacy requirements, demonstrating how different identity types can be mapped to each category.
