Explainable Artificial Intelligence for human-AI collaboration

As a society, we have come to notice the influence and impact Artificially Intelligent (AI) agents have on the way we live our lives. For these AI agents to support us both effectively and responsibly, we require an understanding on how they make decisions and what the consequences are of these decisions. The research _field of Explainable...

Model-specific Explainable Artificial Intelligence techniques: State-of-the-art, Advantages and Limitations

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine learning (ML) applications are being widely used to solve different problems in different sectors. These applications have enabled the human-effort and involvement to be very low. The AI/ML systems<br/>make their own predictions and do not require a great deal of human help. However, over the last few...

Explainable Artificial Intelligence Techniques for the Analysis of Reinforcement Learning in Non-Linear Flight Regimes

Reinforcement Learning is being increasingly applied to flight control tasks, with the objective of developing truly autonomous flying vehicles able to traverse highly variable environments and adapt to unknown situations or possible failures. However, the development of these increasingly complex models and algorithms further reduces our...

Investigation and Comparison of Evaluation Methods of Model-Agnostic Explainable AI Models

Many artificial intelligence (AI) systems are built using black-box machine learning (ML) algorithms. The lack of transparency and interpretability reduces their trustworthiness. In recent years, research into explainable AI (XAI) has increased. These systems are designed to tackle common ML issues such as trust, accountability, and transparency...

Automated Defect Analysis using Optical Sensing and Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Fibre Layup Processes in Composite Manufacturing

In modern aircraft, structural lightweight composite components are increasingly<br/>used. To manufacture these components in a costeffective way, robust production systems for the manufacturing of complex fibre composite components are necessary. A rather novel but already established process for fibre material deposition is the Automated Fibre...
