Clause 1, Scope
The stated subject is a method for applying statistical techniques to judge how robust a neural network is. It covers picking those techniques, running them and keeping them under control. It states no acceptance threshold, no sample size and no pass mark.
The requirement in plain English
The stated subject is a method for applying statistical techniques to judge how robust a neural network is. It covers picking those techniques, running them and keeping them under control. It states no acceptance threshold, no sample size and no pass mark.
What the public record says
The public view gives a single sentence about its subject: a method for using statistical techniques to judge how well neural networks hold up. The ISO abstract adds that the emphasis is on picking, running and controlling those techniques.
Why it matters to you
This is the sentence that decides whether the document is relevant to you. It names three things: statistical methods, robustness properties, and neural networks. If your system has no neural network, the scope does not reach it. If it has one but you never assess robustness, the document gives you a method you are not yet using. The absence of a threshold is the practical point: the standard will not tell you what score passes, so your own acceptance criterion has to exist before the method can be applied.
Evidence a reviewer asks for
- A one-page scope note naming each AI system that contains a neural network, with the reason each is in or out.
- The robustness property or properties claimed for each system, in one sentence each.
- The statistical method or methods used, by name and version.
- The acceptance criterion and who signed it, with the date.
Checks to run this month
- Can you name every neural network in production, including those inside bought software?
- Does any procedure already claim a robustness assessment without naming a statistical method?
- Who is allowed to set the acceptance threshold for each system?

What this page does not state
The public text does not state a threshold, a sample size or a metric. The clause titles are public from clause 1 to 8.4; the body text after clause 3.1 is withheld.
