EAGF: a four-pillar ethical AI governance framework for trustworthy cybersecurity in 5G renewable energy IoT systems
摘要
AI-driven anomaly detectors in 5G renewable energy IoT and industrial systems lack unified governance: they operate opaquely, exhibit protocol-class bias, and expose training data to inference attacks. This paper presents the Ethical AI Governance Framework (EAGF), which maps four EU AI Act pillars, transparency (C), fairness (RP/FPRP), privacy (P), and accountability (A) to computable engineering metrics that are jointly governed within one training-and-deployment lifecycle: fairness and privacy are co-optimized via a Pareto-guided multi-objective procedure with domain-adaptive fairness loss selection, transparency is structurally controlled through clarity-triggered pruning, and accountability is audited post hoc, with all four scores aggregated into a composite Trust Index (TI). Evaluated across two domains: on a biometric task (10,021 images, ten seeds), EAGF raises TI by
