Explainable (and Maintainable) Expert Systems

چکیده
Principled development techniques could greatly enhance the understandability of expert systems for both users and system developers. Current systems have limited explanatory capabilities and present maintenance problems because of a failure to explicitly represent the knowledge and reasoning that went into their design. This paper describes a paradigm for constructing expert systems which attempts to identify that tacit knowledge, provide means for capturing it in the knowledge bases of expert systems, and apply it towards more perspicuous machinegenerated explanations and more consistent and maintainable system organization.

In the era of the Internet of Things and Big Data, data scientists are required to extract valuable knowledge from the given data. This challenging task is not straightforward. Data scientists first analyze, cure and pre-process data. Then, they apply Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques to automatically extract knowledge from data. However, nowadays the focus is set on knowledge representat...

متن کاملBuilding Explainable Artificial Intelligence Systems
As artificial intelligence (AI) systems and behavior models in military simulations become increasingly complex, it has been difficult for users to understand the activities of computer-controlled entities. Prototype explanation systems have been added to simulators, but designers have not heeded the lessons learned from work in explaining expert system behavior. These new explanation systems a...
متن کاملAn Interactive Approach to Outlier Detection
In this paper we describe an interactive approach for finding outliers in big sets of records, such as collected by banks, insurance companies, web shops. The key idea behind our approach is the usage of an easy-to-compute and easy-to-interpret outlier score function. This function is used to identify a set of potential outliers. The outliers, organized in clusters, are then presented to a doma...
