• Title: On Explainability in AI-Solutions: A Cross-Domain Survey
• Authors: Simon Daniel Duque Anton, Daniel Schneider, Hans Dieter Schotten
• Abstract summary: In automatically deriving a system model, AI algorithms learn relations in data that are not detectable for humans. The more complex a model, the more difficult it is for a human to understand the reasoning for the decisions. This work provides an extensive survey of literature on this topic, which, to a large part, consists of other surveys.

• Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) increasingly shows its potential to outperform predicate logic algorithms and human control alike. In automatically deriving a system model, AI algorithms learn relations in data that are not detectable for humans. This great strength, however, also makes use of AI methods dubious. The more complex a model, the more difficult it is for a human to understand the reasoning for the decisions. As currently, fully automated AI algorithms are sparse, every algorithm has to provide a reasoning for human operators. For data engineers, metrics such as accuracy and sensitivity are sufficient. However, if models are interacting with non-experts, explanations have to be understandable. This work provides an extensive survey of literature on this topic, which, to a large part, consists of other surveys. The findings are mapped to ways of explaining decisions and reasons for explaining decisions. It shows that the heterogeneity of reasons and methods of and for explainability lead to individual explanatory frameworks.

  We evaluate whether explanations can improve human decision-making in practical scenarios of machine learning model development. To our surprise, we did not find evidence of significant improvement on tasks when users were provided with any of the saliency maps. These findings suggest caution regarding the usefulness and potential for misunderstanding in saliency-based explanations.

  There is a certain consensus about the need to develop AI applications with a Human-Centric approach. Human-Centric Machine Learning needs to be developed based on four main requirements: (i) utility and social good; (ii) privacy and data ownership; (iii) transparency and accountability; and (iv) fairness in AI-driven decision-making processes. We study how current multimodal algorithms based on heterogeneous sources of information are affected by sensitive elements and inner biases in the data.

• Alterfactual Explanations -- The Relevance of Irrelevance for Explaining AI Systems [0.9542023122304099]
  We argue that in order to fully understand a decision, not only knowledge about relevant features is needed, but that the awareness of irrelevant information also highly contributes to the creation of a user's mental model of an AI system. Our approach, which we call Alterfactual Explanations, is based on showing an alternative reality where irrelevant features of an AI's input are altered. We show that alterfactual explanations are suited to convey an understanding of different aspects of the AI's reasoning than established counterfactual explanation methods.

  Lack of explainability of a decision from an Artificial Intelligence based "black box" system/model is a key stumbling block for adopting AI in high stakes applications. We demonstrate popular Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) methods with a mutual case study/task. We analyze for competitive advantages from multiple perspectives. We recommend paths towards responsible or human-centered AI using XAI as a medium.

• Does Explainable Artificial Intelligence Improve Human Decision-Making? [17.18994675838646]
  We compare and evaluate objective human decision accuracy without AI (control), with an AI prediction (no explanation) and AI prediction with explanation. We find any kind of AI prediction tends to improve user decision accuracy, but no conclusive evidence that explainable AI has a meaningful impact. Our results indicate that, at least in some situations, the "why" information provided in explainable AI may not enhance user decision-making.

• Self-explaining AI as an alternative to interpretable AI [0.0]
  Double descent indicates that deep neural networks operate by smoothly interpolating between data points. Neural networks trained on complex real world data are inherently hard to interpret and prone to failure if asked to extrapolate. Self-explaining AIs are capable of providing a human-understandable explanation along with confidence levels for both the decision and explanation.
