Learning outcomes

At the end of the course, the student is able to apply the knowledge acquired in User Experience Design in order to carry out autonomously a project focusing on a topic agreed upon with the teacher.

Course contents

The module is a follow-up of the main course in Usability and User Experience Design specifically meant for students in Artificial Intelligence and discusses the following topics:

• Understand that (artificial) intelligence is not just about learning and reasoning, but also about communicating (e.g. explaining to humans).
• Understand what is the state-of-the-art of eXplainable AI (XAI) and how to design user-centred explanatorY AI (YAI).

We will define a common glossary on the meaning of explanation, explainability and interpretability in this context, discuss the importance of explainable and explanatory software in modern society, mentioning the recent EU’s “Right to Explanation”and works toward a user-centred explanatory software compliant with the GDPR
