Re: Toward a web standard for XAI?

 by means of a working example

there is a known/accepted  gap between territory and the map
the assumption that the map corresponds to the territory, can result
in fatal error

1. i d like to see how category theory resolves this particular dichotomy

2.  if all intelligent systems humanity depends on, rely on such
common wrong assumptions,
that's where critical failures occur

3, thats where the work needs to be done, imho

For such approaches, we can also consider that components can have settings, that components can be configurable.

Which composite components should one utilize in an explanation or argument and which should be zoomed in upon and to which level of detail? We can generalize with respect to generating explanations and arguments from recursive models of: (1) mathematical proofs, (2) computer programs, and (3) component-based systems. We can consider a number of topics for all three cases: explanation planning, context modeling, task modeling, user modeling, cognitive load modeling, attention modeling, relevance modeling and adaptive explanation.

Brainstorming, we can consider that components or systems can produce data, e.g. event logs, when training or forming experiences in environments, such that the produced data can be of use to generating explanations and arguments for artificial intelligence systems’ behaviors or outputs. Pertinent topics include contextual summarization and narrative.

XAI [4] approaches should work for deep learning models assembled by interconnecting components. We can envision explanations and arguments, or generators for such, forming as deep learning models are assembled from components.
