论文摘要
我们介绍了英国刑事司法系统在三类中使用的工具的调查：数据基础架构，数据分析和风险预测。目前，许多工具都在部署中，提供潜在的好处，包括提高效率和一致性。但是，也有重要的问题。有关这些工具，其目的，如何使用以及难以获得的透明信息。即使有可用的信息，也通常不足以实现令人满意的评估。需要更多的工作来建立治理机制，以确保以透明，安全和道德的方式部署工具。我们呼吁与利益相关者进行更多的参与，并更多地记录工具的预期目标，与其他选项相比，它将如何实现此目标以及如何在部署中进行监控。我们重点介绍评估部署工具的可信度并为政策提出具体建议时要考虑的其他要点。
We present a survey of tools used in the criminal justice system in the UK in three categories: data infrastructure, data analysis, and risk prediction. Many tools are currently in deployment, offering potential benefits, including improved efficiency and consistency. However, there are also important concerns. Transparent information about these tools, their purpose, how they are used, and by whom is difficult to obtain. Even when information is available, it is often insufficient to enable a satisfactory evaluation. More work is needed to establish governance mechanisms to ensure that tools are deployed in a transparent, safe and ethical way. We call for more engagement with stakeholders and greater documentation of the intended goal of a tool, how it will achieve this goal compared to other options, and how it will be monitored in deployment. We highlight additional points to consider when evaluating the trustworthiness of deployed tools and make concrete proposals for policy.
