Conformance Constraint Discovery: Measuring Trust in Data-Driven Systems
Summary: Conformance constraints: a data-profiling primitive to quantify non-conformance between serving data and training assumptions. Low-variance projections yield strong constraints; linear-in-data, cubic-in-attributes discovery with a quantitative non-conformance score supports trusted ML and drift detection.
