Azure Orbital Ground Station as Service extends life and reduces costs for satellite operators
How can Microsoft empower satellite operators to focus on their mission and enable them to continue the operation of their satellites, without making capital investments in their ground infrastructure? To answer that question, Microsoft worked alongside the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and our partner Xplore, to demonstrate how the commercial cloud can provide […]
MLOPs Blog Series Part 2: Testing robustness of secure machine learning systems using machine learning ops
Robustness is the ability of a closed-loop system to tolerate perturbations or anomalies while system parameters are varied over a wide range. There are three essential tests to ensure that the machine learning system is robust in the production environments: unit testing, data and model testing, and integration testing. Unit testing Tests are performed on […]
Responsible AI investments and safeguards for facial recognition
A core priority for the Cognitive Services team is to ensure its AI technology, including facial recognition, is developed and used responsibly. While we have adopted six essential principles to guide our work in AI more broadly, we recognized early on that the unique risks and opportunities posed by facial recognition technology necessitate its own […]
