THE SYMPOSIUM

The Research and Industry Symposium on "Explainable AI" is a prominent event bringing together researchers, industry professionals, and policymakers to discuss advancements, challenges, and applications of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI). Explainable AI (XAI) refers to methods and techniques in artificial intelligence that make the decision-making processes of AI systems understandable to humans. The goal of XAI is to create AI systems whose actions and decisions can be easily interpreted and trusted by users, developers, and regulators. This symposium aims to foster collaboration between academia and industry, promote the development of transparent AI systems, and address the ethical and societal implications of AI technologies.

OBJECTIVE OF

THE SYMPOSIUM

The primary objectives of the symposium include:

  • To deepen the understanding of explainable AI techniques and their applications across various domains.
  • To create a platform for networking and collaboration between researchers, industry experts, and policymakers.
  • To showcase the latest research findings, innovative solutions, and practical applications of XAI.
  • To discuss the ethical, legal, and societal impacts of AI, emphasizing the need for transparency and accountability.
  • To identify future research directions and industry needs in the field of explainable AI.
