人工智能(AI)和机器学习(ML)在网络安全挑战中的应用已在行业和学术界的吸引力,部分原因是对关键系统(例如云基础架构和政府机构)的广泛恶意软件攻击。入侵检测系统(IDS)使用某些形式的AI,由于能够以高预测准确性处理大量数据,因此获得了广泛的采用。这些系统托管在组织网络安全操作中心(CSOC)中,作为一种防御工具,可监视和检测恶意网络流,否则会影响机密性,完整性和可用性(CIA)。 CSOC分析师依靠这些系统来决定检测到的威胁。但是,使用深度学习(DL)技术设计的IDS通常被视为黑匣子模型,并且没有为其预测提供理由。这为CSOC分析师造成了障碍,因为他们无法根据模型的预测改善决策。解决此问题的一种解决方案是设计可解释的ID(X-IDS)。这项调查回顾了可解释的AI(XAI)的最先进的ID,目前的挑战,并讨论了这些挑战如何涉及X-ID的设计。特别是,我们全面讨论了黑匣子和白盒方法。我们还在这些方法之间的性能和产生解释的能力方面提出了权衡。此外,我们提出了一种通用体系结构,该建筑认为人类在循环中,该架构可以用作设计X-ID时的指南。研究建议是从三个关键观点提出的:需要定义ID的解释性,需要为各种利益相关者量身定制的解释以及设计指标来评估解释的需求。

如今,人工智能(AI)已成为临床和远程医疗保健应用程序的基本组成部分,但是最佳性能的AI系统通常太复杂了,无法自我解释。可解释的AI(XAI)技术被定义为揭示系统的预测和决策背后的推理,并且在处理敏感和个人健康数据时,它们变得更加至关重要。值得注意的是,XAI并未在不同的研究领域和数据类型中引起相同的关注,尤其是在医疗保健领域。特别是,许多临床和远程健康应用程序分别基于表格和时间序列数据,而XAI并未在这些数据类型上进行分析,而计算机视觉和自然语言处理(NLP)是参考应用程序。为了提供最适合医疗领域表格和时间序列数据的XAI方法的概述,本文提供了过去5年中文献的审查,说明了生成的解释的类型以及为评估其相关性所提供的努力和质量。具体而言,我们确定临床验证,一致性评估,客观和标准化质量评估以及以人为本的质量评估作为确保最终用户有效解释的关键特征。最后,我们强调了该领域的主要研究挑战以及现有XAI方法的局限性。

预测过程分析已成为组织的基本援助,从而为其流程提供在线运营支持。但是,需要向流程利益相关者提供解释为什么预测给定流程执行以某种方式行事的原因。否则,他们将不太可能相信预测性监测技术,从而采用它。本文提出了一个预测分析框架,该框架还具有基于Shapley值的游戏理论的解释功能。该框架已在IBM Process采矿套件中实施,并为业务用户商业化。该框架已在现实生活事件数据上进行了测试,以评估预测的质量和相应的评估。特别是,已经执行了用户评估,以了解系统提供的解释是否可以使流程利益相关者可理解。

本文研究了与可解释的AI(XAI)实践有关的两个不同但相关的问题。机器学习(ML)在金融服务中越来越重要,例如预批准,信用承销,投资以及各种前端和后端活动。机器学习可以自动检测培训数据中的非线性和相互作用,从而促进更快,更准确的信用决策。但是,机器学习模型是不透明的,难以解释,这是建立可靠技术所需的关键要素。该研究比较了各种机器学习模型,包括单个分类器(逻辑回归,决策树,LDA,QDA),异质集合(Adaboost,随机森林)和顺序神经网络。结果表明,整体分类器和神经网络的表现优于表现。此外,使用基于美国P2P贷款平台Lending Club提供的开放式访问数据集评估了两种先进的事后不可解释能力 - 石灰和外形来评估基于ML的信用评分模型。对于这项研究,我们还使用机器学习算法来开发新的投资模型,并探索可以最大化盈利能力同时最大程度地降低风险的投资组合策略。

Artificial intelligence(AI) systems based on deep neural networks (DNNs) and machine learning (ML) algorithms are increasingly used to solve critical problems in bioinformatics, biomedical informatics, and precision medicine. However, complex DNN or ML models that are unavoidably opaque and perceived as black-box methods, may not be able to explain why and how they make certain decisions. Such black-box models are difficult to comprehend not only for targeted users and decision-makers but also for AI developers. Besides, in sensitive areas like healthcare, explainability and accountability are not only desirable properties of AI but also legal requirements -- especially when AI may have significant impacts on human lives. Explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) is an emerging field that aims to mitigate the opaqueness of black-box models and make it possible to interpret how AI systems make their decisions with transparency. An interpretable ML model can explain how it makes predictions and which factors affect the model's outcomes. The majority of state-of-the-art interpretable ML methods have been developed in a domain-agnostic way and originate from computer vision, automated reasoning, or even statistics. Many of these methods cannot be directly applied to bioinformatics problems, without prior customization, extension, and domain adoption. In this paper, we discuss the importance of explainability with a focus on bioinformatics. We analyse and comprehensively overview of model-specific and model-agnostic interpretable ML methods and tools. Via several case studies covering bioimaging, cancer genomics, and biomedical text mining, we show how bioinformatics research could benefit from XAI methods and how they could help improve decision fairness.

可解释的人工智能和可解释的机器学习是重要性越来越重要的研究领域。然而,潜在的概念仍然难以捉摸,并且缺乏普遍商定的定义。虽然社会科学最近的灵感已经重新分为人类受助人的需求和期望的工作,但该领域仍然错过了具体的概念化。通过审查人类解释性的哲学和社会基础,我们采取措施来解决这一挑战,然后我们转化为技术领域。特别是,我们仔细审查了算法黑匣子的概念,并通过解释过程确定的理解频谱并扩展了背景知识。这种方法允许我们将可解释性(逻辑)推理定义为在某些背景知识下解释的透明洞察(进入黑匣子)的解释 - 这是一个从事在Admoleis中理解的过程。然后,我们采用这种概念化来重新审视透明度和预测权力之间的争议权差异,以及对安特 - 人穴和后宫后解释者的影响,以及可解释性发挥的公平和问责制。我们还讨论机器学习工作流程的组件,可能需要可解释性,从以人为本的可解释性建立一系列思想,重点介绍声明,对比陈述和解释过程。我们的讨论调整并补充目前的研究,以帮助更好地导航开放问题 - 而不是试图解决任何个人问题 - 从而为实现的地面讨论和解释的人工智能和可解释的机器学习的未来进展奠定了坚实的基础。我们结束了我们的研究结果,重新审视了实现所需的算法透明度水平所需的人以人为本的解释过程。

Building an accurate model of travel behaviour based on individuals' characteristics and built environment attributes is of importance for policy-making and transportation planning. Recent experiments with big data and Machine Learning (ML) algorithms toward a better travel behaviour analysis have mainly overlooked socially disadvantaged groups. Accordingly, in this study, we explore the travel behaviour responses of low-income individuals to transit investments in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, Canada, using statistical and ML models. We first investigate how the model choice affects the prediction of transit use by the low-income group. This step includes comparing the predictive performance of traditional and ML algorithms and then evaluating a transit investment policy by contrasting the predicted activities and the spatial distribution of transit trips generated by vulnerable households after improving accessibility. We also empirically investigate the proposed transit investment by each algorithm and compare it with the city of Brampton's future transportation plan. While, unsurprisingly, the ML algorithms outperform classical models, there are still doubts about using them due to interpretability concerns. Hence, we adopt recent local and global model-agnostic interpretation tools to interpret how the model arrives at its predictions. Our findings reveal the great potential of ML algorithms for enhanced travel behaviour predictions for low-income strata without considerably sacrificing interpretability.

Various methods using machine and deep learning have been proposed to tackle different tasks in predictive process monitoring, forecasting for an ongoing case e.g. the most likely next event or suffix, its remaining time, or an outcome-related variable. Recurrent neural networks (RNNs), and more specifically long short-term memory nets (LSTMs), stand out in terms of popularity. In this work, we investigate the capabilities of such an LSTM to actually learn the underlying process model structure of an event log. We introduce an evaluation framework that combines variant-based resampling and custom metrics for fitness, precision and generalization. We evaluate 4 hypotheses concerning the learning capabilities of LSTMs, the effect of overfitting countermeasures, the level of incompleteness in the training set and the level of parallelism in the underlying process model. We confirm that LSTMs can struggle to learn process model structure, even with simplistic process data and in a very lenient setup. Taking the correct anti-overfitting measures can alleviate the problem. However, these measures did not present themselves to be optimal when selecting hyperparameters purely on predicting accuracy. We also found that decreasing the amount of information seen by the LSTM during training, causes a sharp drop in generalization and precision scores. In our experiments, we could not identify a relationship between the extent of parallelism in the model and the generalization capability, but they do indicate that the process' complexity might have impact.

In the last years many accurate decision support systems have been constructed as black boxes, that is as systems that hide their internal logic to the user. This lack of explanation constitutes both a practical and an ethical issue. The literature reports many approaches aimed at overcoming this crucial weakness sometimes at the cost of scarifying accuracy for interpretability. The applications in which black box decision systems can be used are various, and each approach is typically developed to provide a solution for a specific problem and, as a consequence, delineating explicitly or implicitly its own definition of interpretability and explanation. The aim of this paper is to provide a classification of the main problems addressed in the literature with respect to the notion of explanation and the type of black box system. Given a problem definition, a black box type, and a desired explanation this survey should help the researcher to find the proposals more useful for his own work. The proposed classification of approaches to open black box models should also be useful for putting the many research open questions in perspective.

Automated Machine Learning-based systems' integration into a wide range of tasks has expanded as a result of their performance and speed. Although there are numerous advantages to employing ML-based systems, if they are not interpretable, they should not be used in critical, high-risk applications where human lives are at risk. To address this issue, researchers and businesses have been focusing on finding ways to improve the interpretability of complex ML systems, and several such methods have been developed. Indeed, there are so many developed techniques that it is difficult for practitioners to choose the best among them for their applications, even when using evaluation metrics. As a result, the demand for a selection tool, a meta-explanation technique based on a high-quality evaluation metric, is apparent. In this paper, we present a local meta-explanation technique which builds on top of the truthfulness metric, which is a faithfulness-based metric. We demonstrate the effectiveness of both the technique and the metric by concretely defining all the concepts and through experimentation.

Explainability is a vibrant research topic in the artificial intelligence community, with growing interest across methods and domains. Much has been written about the topic, yet explainability still lacks shared terminology and a framework capable of providing structural soundness to explanations. In our work, we address these issues by proposing a novel definition of explanation that is a synthesis of what can be found in the literature. We recognize that explanations are not atomic but the product of evidence stemming from the model and its input-output and the human interpretation of this evidence. Furthermore, we fit explanations into the properties of faithfulness (i.e., the explanation being a true description of the model's decision-making) and plausibility (i.e., how much the explanation looks convincing to the user). Using our proposed theoretical framework simplifies how these properties are ope rationalized and provide new insight into common explanation methods that we analyze as case studies.

机器学习算法可以在当代智能系统中进行高级决策。研究表明,它们的模型性能与解释性之间存在权衡。具有较高性能的机器学习模型通常基于更复杂的算法,因此缺乏解释性,反之亦然。但是,从最终用户的角度来看,这种权衡几乎没有经验证据。我们旨在通过进行两个用户实验来提供经验证据。使用两个不同的数据集,我们首先测量五种常见的机器学习算法的权衡。其次,我们解决了最终用户对可解释的人工智能增强的看法的问题,旨在增加对高性能复杂模型的决策逻辑的理解。我们的结果与权衡曲线的广泛假设有所不同,并表明模型性能和解释性之间的权衡在最终用户的感知中逐渐少得多。这与假定的固有模型可解释性形成鲜明对比。此外,我们发现折衷是由于数据复杂性而成为情境。我们的第二次实验的结果表明,尽管可以使用可解释的人工智能增强来提高解释性,但解释的类型在最终用户感知中起着至关重要的作用。
