China's First International Standard for AI Data Quality, with iFLYTEK's Participation, Officially Released

In July 2024, the international standard ISO/IEC 5259-4:2024 "Artificial intelligence - Data quality for analytics and machine learning (ML) - Part 4: Data quality process framework" was officially released. This standard, jointly proposed by iFLYTEK and the China Electronics Standardization Institute, marks the first international standard in the field of artificial intelligence data quality led by China, signifying a significant step forward for China in the global standardization process of AI data.

This standard is applicable to quality control of data used in supervised learning, unsupervised learning, semi-supervised learning, reinforcement learning, and analytics. It provides a common methodology and guidance for various organizations. These guidelines cover the entire data lifecycle, including data acquisition, preparation, labeling, evaluation, and utilization.

The standard was approved for development in August 2020. After numerous discussions and revisions, including working group proposals, technical committee deliberations, national member body voting, and international draft standard voting, it was finally officially released by ISO/IEC in July 2024.

Data is one of the most important and critical foundational elements of new-generation artificial intelligence, especially in the current wave of generative AI. The quality of data directly impacts the quality and credibility of the content generated by AI systems. In the process of AI technology innovation and application implementation, iFLYTEK has always attached great importance to data governance and strictly controlled data quality. By driving AI technology applications in a wider range of fields with high-quality data, iFLYTEK promotes the greater usability, reliability, and trustworthiness of AI products and services, creating more value for society.
