Do Explanations Help Users Detect Errors in Open-Domain QA? An Evaluation of Spoken vs. Visual Explanations (2021.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | despite interest in explainable AI, there is increasing skepticism as to whether explanations are useful to end-users in downstream applications. |
| Approach: | They conduct user studies to measure whether explanations help users decide when to accept or reject an ODQA system's answer. |
| Outcome: | The proposed study shows that explanations outperform baselines across modalities but the best strategy varies with the modality. |
