Deep Argumentative Explanations
Despite the recent, widespread focus on eXplainable AI (XAI), explanations computed by XAI methods tend to provide little insight into the functioning of Neural Networks (NNs). We propose a novel framework for obtaining (local) explanations from NNs while providing transparency about their inner workings, and show how to deploy it for various neural architectures and tasks. We refer to our novel explanations collectively as Deep Argumentative eXplanations (DAXs in short), given that they reflect the deep structure of the underlying NNs and that they are defined in terms of notions from computational argumentation, a form of symbolic AI offering useful reasoning abstractions for explanation. We evaluate DAXs empirically showing that they exhibit deep fidelity and low computational cost. We also conduct human experiments indicating that DAXs are comprehensible to humans and align with their judgement, while also being competitive, in terms of user acceptance, with some existing approaches to XAI that also have an argumentative spirit.

Explainable Decision Making with Lean and Argumentative Explanations
It is widely acknowledged that transparency of automated decision making is crucial for deployability of intelligent systems, and explaining the reasons why some decisions are "good" and some are not is a way to achievin…
Decision MakingExplaining Causal Models with Argumentation: the Case of Bi-variate Reinforcement
Causal models are playing an increasingly important role in machine learning, particularly in the realm of explainable AI. We introduce a conceptualisation for generating argumentation frameworks (AFs) from causal models…
Argumentation for Explainable Scheduling (Full Paper with Proofs)
Mathematical optimization offers highly-effective tools for finding solutions for problems with well-defined goals, notably scheduling. However, optimization solvers are often unexplainable black boxes whose solutions ar…
Abstract ArgumentationSchedulingSpArX: Sparse Argumentative Explanations for Neural Networks [Technical Report]
Neural networks (NNs) have various applications in AI, but explaining their decisions remains challenging. Existing approaches often focus on explaining how changing individual inputs affects NNs' outputs. However, an ex…
A Corpus of Deep Argumentative Structures as an Explanation to Argumentative Relations
In this paper, we compose a new task for deep argumentative structure analysis that goes beyond shallow discourse structure analysis. The idea is that argumentative relations can reasonably be represented with a small se…
