• Abstract: Machine learning (ML) interpretability techniques can reveal undesirable patterns in data that models exploit to make predictions--potentially causing harms once deployed. However, how to take action to address these patterns is not always clear. In a collaboration between ML and human-computer interaction researchers, physicians, and data scientists, we develop GAM Changer, the first interactive system to help domain experts and data scientists easily and responsibly edit Generalized Additive Models (GAMs) and fix problematic patterns. With novel interaction techniques, our tool puts interpretability into action--empowering users to analyze, validate, and align model behaviors with their knowledge and values. Physicians have started to use our tool to investigate and fix pneumonia and sepsis risk prediction models, and an evaluation with 7 data scientists working in diverse domains highlights that our tool is easy to use, meets their model editing needs, and fits into their current workflows. Built with modern web technologies, our tool runs locally in users' web browsers or computational notebooks, lowering the barrier to use. GAM Changer is available at the following public demo link: https://interpret.ml/gam-changer.

  Over-consumption of language model outputs risks propagating unchecked errors in the short-term and damaging human capabilities in the long-term. We propose selective frictions for language model experiences, inspired by behavioral science interventions, to dampen misuse.

  MAIA is a system that uses neural models to automate neural model understanding tasks. We first characterize MAIA's ability to describe (neuron-level) features in learned representations of images. We then show that MAIA can aid in two additional interpretability tasks: reducing sensitivity to spurious features, and automatically identifying inputs likely to be mis-classified.

  Domain experts increasingly use automated data science tools to incorporate machine learning (ML) models in their work but struggle to " codify" these models when they are incorrect. For these experts, semantic interactions can provide an accessible avenue to guide and refine ML models without having to dive into its technical details. This study examines how experts with a spectrum of ML expertise use semantic interactions to update a simple classification model.

We propose a novel human-in-the-loop ML framework aimed at dealing with learning problems that the cost of data annotation is high. With an application to precision dosing, our experimental results show that the approach can learn interpretable rules from data and may potentially lower experts' workload.

  Learning predictive models from interaction with the world allows an agent, such as a robot, to learn about how the world works.

We propose a method to augment the training set with observational data of other agents, such as humans.
