Model Card Evidence Framework
A model card is a versioned statement by the publisher. It becomes useful evidence when the reader freezes the revision, identifies the artifact, follows linked methods, and records omissions.
The Model Cards paper proposes documentation of intended use, evaluation conditions, performance, and limitations. A card can improve transparency without becoming independent validation.
| Section | Reader check |
|---|---|
| Identity | Publisher, model, revision, base model, files, hashes, and access path |
| License | Rights, restrictions, attribution, acceptable use, and downstream obligations |
| Data and training | Sources, dates, synthetic data, filtering, contamination, and omissions |
| Intended use | Users, tasks, conditions, prohibited uses, and risk boundary |
| Evaluation | Dataset, prompt, runtime, metric, raw outputs, uncertainty, and independent runs |
| Limitations | Failure modes, exclusions, languages, groups, domains, and known risks |
| Changes | Commit history, corrected claims, removed claims, and refresh owner |
The card should be annotated as publisher claim, linked evidence, independent support, conflict, or unknown.
