Primes

• Evolutionary Trap
  • Engineering and safety — a controller tuned to a sensor that was a good proxy in test conditions becoming pathological in deployment, such as autopilot following lane markings into a construction zone.

    This sourceSurveys how automated-driving systems whose sensors/models were good proxies within their training/operational design domain become pathological under out-of-distribution conditions (e.g. unusual lane markings, construction zones), the deployment-time proxy decoupling of a calibrated controller.

    Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract

    The survey's abstract frames automated-driving functional insufficiencies as a deployment safety problem (SOTIF), but says nothing about lane markings, construction zones, or a test-time proxy turning pathological.

    “a novel safety concern known as the safety of the intended functionality (SOTIF) has emerged, presenting significant challenges to the widespread deployment of AVs. SOTIF focuses on issues arising from the functional insufficiencies of the AVs’ intended functionality or its implementation, apart from conventional safety considerations.”

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
