报告内容简介：

AI as a concept has been around since the 1950’s. With the recent advancements in machine learning technology, and the availability of big data and large computing processing power, the scene is set for AI to be used in many more systems and applications which will profoundly impact society. The current deep learning based AI systems are mostly in black box form and are often non-explainable. Though it has high performance, it is also known to make occasional fatal mistakes. This has limited the applications of AI, especially in mission critical problems such as decision support, command and control, and other life-critical operations. This talk focuses on explainable AI, which holds promise in helping humans to better understand and interpret the decisions made by black-box AI models.

In this talk, Dr Chua will present current state-of-the arts in explainable multimedia AI, along with our preliminary research on relation inference in videos, as well as leveraging prior domain knowledge, information theoretic principles, and adversarial algorithms to achieving explainable framework. Dr Chua will also discuss future research towards quality, fairness and robustness of explainable AI.
