The first generation of experts on Explainable Artificial Intelligence in Europe is about to arise as the NL4XAI (Natural Language for Explainable Artificial Intelligence) research project comes to an end. Funded under the EU’s Horizon 2020 programme to train eleven PhD candidates, this European consortium announces its final conference and industrial event, scheduled to take place on 24 May 2024 at the DesignLab of the University of Twente, The Netherlands.
The event will serve as a pivotal platform to share the groundbreaking results achieved by the PhD candidates in the realm of Natural Language (NL) for Explainable AI (XAI), as well as to catalyse dynamic discussions about future directions and initiatives in the field.
It will serve as a forum where where PhD students can reflect on lessons learned and their contributions to NLXAI, and where academics and industry practitioners can exchange ideas about the state-of-the-art and the future of this important field.
Maryam Amir Haeri, Assistant Professor at the University of Twente, Joop Snijder, Head of Research Center AI at Info Support, and Meike Nauta, Senior Data Scientist and AI Consultant at Datacation, will deliver enlightening talks.
About NL4XAI
NL4XAI is funded by the Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme, through a Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant, in the framework of the European Union’s bet for Explainable Artificial Intelligence. The network is coordinated by the research team at the Research Centre in Intelligent Technology of the University of Santiago de Compostela (CiTIUS-USC), headed by Senén Barro. NL4XAI is a joint academic-industry research network, that brings together 21 beneficiaries and partners from six different European countries (France, Malta, Poland, Spain, The Netherlands, and UK). The partners correspond to two national research institutions (IIIA-CSIC, CNRS), ten universities (University of Aberdeen, University of Dundee, L-Università ta’ Malta, Delft University of Technology, Utrecht University, University of Twente, Warsaw University of Technology, Université de Lorraine, Universidade de Santiago de Compostela, Universitat Autonòma de Barcelona, Maastricht University) and eight private companies (Indra, Accenture, Orange, Wizenoze, Arria, InfoSupport, INDITEX and Trivago).
