Abstract
\nSince it is increasingly h arder to opt out from interacting with AI technology\, people demand that AI is capable of maintaining contracts such that it supports agency and ov ersight of people who are required to use it or who are affected by it. To help those people create a mental model about how to interact with AI sys tems\, I extend the underlying models to self-explain—predict the label/an swer and explain this prediction. In this talk\, I will present how to gen erate (1) free-text explanations given in plain English that immediately t ell users the gist of the reasoning\, and (2) contrastive explanations tha t help users understand how they could change the text to get another labe l.
\nBiography
\nAna Marasović is a postdocto ral researcher at the Allen Institute for AI (AI2) and the Paul G. Allen S chool of Computer Science & Engineering at University of Washington. Her r esearch interests broadly lie in the fields of natural language processing \, explainable AI\, and vision-and-language learning. Her projects are mot ivated by a unified goal: improve interaction and control of the NLP syste ms to help people make these systems do what they want with the confidence that they’re getting exactly what they need. Prior to joining AI2\, Ana o btained her PhD from Heidelberg University.
\nHow to pronounce my name: the first name is Ana like in Spanish\, i.e.\, with a long “a” like in “water”\; regarding the last name: “mara” as in actress mara wilso n + “so” + “veetch”.
