The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $582,031 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to the Regents of the University of Michigan, doing business as the University of Michigan. The grant will fund a 5-year research project focused on "Achieving Explainable Artificial Intelligence (AI) Through Human-AI Interaction."
The goal of the project is to develop new scientific knowledge and design guidelines for delivering meaningful, comprehensive, and accurate explanations about AI systems to end-users, such as domain experts, policymakers, and consumers. The research will ground the process of seeking and deriving AI explanations in sensemaking theory, where end-users update their mental models of how the AI works through evidence foraging and hypothesis formation. The findings are expected to expand tools for AI testing, end-user advocacy, public education, and investigative journalism.
