Learning from AI: An Interactive Learning Method Using a DNN Model Incorporating Expert Knowledge as a Teacher
This addresses the challenge of interpretability in AI for learners, but it is incremental as it builds on existing attention-based models.
The paper tackles the problem of improving how learners understand AI decision-making by proposing an interactive method where learners edit attention maps in a fine-tuned deep neural network to align with expert knowledge, resulting in more efficient learning compared to conventional methods.
Visual explanation is an approach for visualizing the grounds of judgment by deep learning, and it is possible to visually interpret the grounds of a judgment for a certain input by visualizing an attention map. As for deep-learning models that output erroneous decision-making grounds, a method that incorporates expert human knowledge in the model via an attention map in a manner that improves explanatory power and recognition accuracy is proposed. In this study, based on a deep-learning model that incorporates the knowledge of experts, a method by which a learner "learns from AI" the grounds for its decisions is proposed. An "attention branch network" (ABN), which has been fine-tuned with attention maps modified by experts, is prepared as a teacher. By using an interactive editing tool for the fine-tuned ABN and attention maps, the learner learns by editing the attention maps and changing the inference results. By repeatedly editing the attention maps and making inferences so that the correct recognition results are output, the learner can acquire the grounds for the expert's judgments embedded in the ABN. The results of an evaluation experiment with subjects show that learning using the proposed method is more efficient than the conventional method.
