Related EU AI Act terms
- AccuracyThe requirement that high-risk AI systems achieve an appropriate level of accuracy in relation to their intended purpose, as specified in the technical documentation. Providers must declare the level of accuracy in the instructions for use.
- RobustnessThe ability of a high-risk AI system to maintain its level of performance under adverse conditions — including technical limitations, adversarial inputs, errors, or unexpected situations — or within foreseeable operating conditions outside the intended purpose.
- CybersecurityThe requirement that high-risk AI systems are resilient against attempts by third parties to alter their use, behaviour, or performance in ways that could result in risks to health, safety, or fundamental rights, including protection against data poisoning, adversarial examples, and model evasion attacks.
