Endowing Machines with the Expert Human Ability to Select Representations: Why and How
Mateja Jamnik, Peter K. Z. Cheng · Oxford University Press eBooks · 2021
To achieve efficient human computer collaboration, computers need to be able to represent information in ways that humans can understand. Picking a good representation is critical for effective communication and human learning, especially on technical topics. To select representations appropriately, AI systems must have some understanding of how humans reason and comprehend the nature of representations. In this interdisciplinary research, we are developing the foundations for the analysis of representations for reasoning. Ultimately, our goal is to build AI systems that select representations intelligently, taking users’ preferences and abilities into account.
