AI Catalogue

AI Catalogue is a semantic-based information-sharing mechanism designed to facilitate compliance with the EU AI Act. It leverages the AI Risk Ontology (AIRO) and AI Risk Vocabulary (VAIR) to create a machine-readable framework for AI system information. This allows for automated risk-adjusted categorization, usage-policy declaration (AIUP), and streamlined regulatory reporting. Unlike static documentation, AI Catalogue enables real-time querying of AI system attributes via SPARQL, ensuring AI systems are Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR) across the AI lifecycle. This aligns with ISO 42001 AI Management System requirements for AI system transparency and AI Act Article 9-10 obligations for high-risk AI systems.

Implementation follows a three-step approach: (1) AI Use Policy (AIUP)-profiling, where enterprises map AI system capabilities to semantic usage categories; (2) Automated Risk Classification, using AIRO-based rules to automatically categorize AI systems into EU AI Act risk tiers (Unacceptable, High, Limited, Minimal); (3) AI Catalogue-driven Compliance Reporting, where AI system attributes are queried and exported for regulatory submission. For example, a multinational company deploying AI for HR recruitment can use AI Catalogue to automatically flag high-risk AI systems under EU AI Act Annex III, reducing compliance-related manual labor by 70% and increasing audit accuracy by 45% compared to traditional spreadsheets.

Taiwan enterprises face three primary challenges: (1) Semantic Technical Gap—most companies lack expertise in AIRO/VAIR frameworks, requiring upskilling in AI-specific ontologies; (2) Data Silos—AI system information is often fragmented across RTO, Legal, and Operations, necessitating a centralized AI Governance Committee; (3) Regulatory Uncertainty—the pending Taiwan AI Basic Law will likely mirror EU AI Act's risk-based approach, making early adoption of AI Catalogue-like mechanisms critical for market access. Recommended Action: Start with a 90-day AI Use-Case Inventory, followed by a 6-month pilot of AIUP profiling, and a 12-month full integration of AI Catalogue-based compliance monitoring.
