XAL: EXplainable Active Learning Makes Classifiers Better Low-resource Learners (2024.naacl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for active learning rely on model uncertainty or disagreement to pick unlabeled data, leading to over-confidence in superficial patterns and lack of exploration. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a bi-directional encoder and a uni-directional decoder to generate and score an explanation for low-resource text classification. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves on 9 strong baselines on six datasets and can generate explanations for its predictions. |
Towards Intrinsic Interpretability of Large Language Models: A Survey of Design Principles and Architectures (2026.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing studies on explainable AI focus on post-hoc explanation methods that interpret trained models through external approximations. |
| Approach: | They propose to categorize existing approaches into five design paradigms: functional transparency, concept alignment, representational decomposability, explicit modularization, and latent sparsity induction. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approaches are categorized into five design paradigms: functional transparency, concept alignment, representational decomposability, explicit modularization, and latent sparsity induction. |
