Description: Robustness refers to the ability of a system to handle errors or unexpected conditions without failing or significantly degrading its performance. In the context of technology, this means that a system can continue to operate effectively even when faced with adverse situations, such as erroneous inputs, hardware failures, or changes in the operating environment. Robustness is a critical attribute in system design, as it ensures that applications and devices can function reliably under variable conditions. A robust system must not only be able to recover from failures but also adapt to new circumstances without compromising its functionality. This translates into higher user satisfaction and reduced costs associated with maintenance and repair. In the field of artificial intelligence, robustness also relates to the ability of models to generalize well to unseen data and resist adversarial attacks, which is essential for applications in various areas, including but not limited to healthcare and security.
