[DMANET] [CFP] Call for Papers: Special Track “Logic & Reasoning for XAI”

*Call for Papers: Special Track "Logic & Reasoning for XAI" *

17-19 July 2024

Valletta, Malta

We are seeking submissions for "Logic & Reasoning for XAI", a special track
at the 2nd World Conference on eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (
https://xaiworldconference.com/2024/).


This special track explores approaches to Explainable AI (XAI) based on
logic and reasoning techniques. While the traditional role of logic in AI
lies in knowledge representation and reasoning, it is increasingly used in
other areas highly relevant to Explainable AI. This includes neuro-symbolic
approaches to AI, learning from a combination of knowledge and data,
explanation interfaces, and as a basis for meta-reasoning about machine
learning systems. An example of meta-reasoning is explaining predictions
made by classifiers. As opposed to popular heuristic-based approaches, the
logic-based approach, based on prime implicants, leads to provably correct
explanations and the ability to reason formally about the behaviour of a
classifier, such as whether the classifier exhibits bias. Logic and
reasoning can be used to study the foundations of explanations in diverse
settings. This track aims to bring together researchers applying logic and
reasoning within XAI. It covers various logic-based strategies for
representing, validating, and implementing XAI systems, emphasising the
harmonisation of logic with AI explainability.
