Abstract:
Artificial Intelligence Systems, ever since the advent of Deep Learning, yield state-of-the-art performances in a multitude of applications compared to the traditional shallow learners. However, they pose a novel challenge of opacity due to the internal working mechanism being occluded in the architectural design of a deep learner. This challenge gains its significance to be addressed following the legal framework mandates on the production of the working rationale whenever AI systems are employed in safety-critical applications involving human lives. This need led to the stemming of a research direction termed Explainable AI, often abbreviated as XAI. The talk shall discuss the various advancements in this direction to address the black box nature of the deep learners and highlight potential open problems the research community can explore.
