[IA] Subjectivity-IA: Proof-of-Concept

Published on 16 May 2025 at 11:29

The JennyLab Subjectivity-IA project is an open-source initiative (test investigation) that explores how to calculate subjectivity without relying on machine learning models. Its goal is to offer a deterministic and explainable approach to decision analysis, especially in contexts where risks and needs must be evaluated.

 

What is Subjectivity-IA?

Subjectivity-IA seeks to determine if an action should be avoided based on two main factors:

Risk: The probability of a negative outcome occurring. Need: The urgency or importance of performing the action. The system evaluates events with different combinations of risk and need to decide whether they should be avoided.

 

For example:

Event: {'risk': 10, 'need': 0} → Avoid?
Event: {'risk': 10, 'need': 95} → Avoid?
Event: {'risk': 85, 'need': 0} → Avoid?
Event: {'risk': 99, 'need': 95} → Avoid?
Event: {'risk': 25, 'need': 85} → Avoid?

 

This suggests that the system uses threshold-based logic for making decisions.

Why is it Relevant?

Subjectivity-IA offers an alternative to machine learning models by providing a deterministic and transparent approach to decision-making. This is especially useful in applications where explainability and traceability are crucial, such as in security systems, medicine, or computational ethics
