Description
I discussed some issues that arise when using Machine Learning as an inference tool in the particular context of the determination of parton distributions. Problems I address include: how do we know that the ML model generalizes correctly? Can we detect overlearning? Can we assign an uncertainty to the ML model predictions, and can we validate this assignment?
