The paper introduces the Explainability Assistant, an open‑source conversational XAI system designed to interpret complex energy consumption forecasting models. By leveraging large language model function‑calling, it achieves 94% intent‑parsing accuracy and supports flexible natural‑language interaction across different ML problem types without task‑specific fine‑tuning. A comparative evaluation with energy domain specialists shows improved usability and consistent task accuracy, with all experts preferring the conversational interface over a traditional XAI dashboard.

arXiv:2502. 00837v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Natural Language Processing (NLP) is now embedded in critical sectors including healthcare, finance, and customer relationship management, where models such as GPT-4o, Gemini, and BERT increasingly inform decisions.
As artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) models become integral to network operations, their lack of transparency poses a significant barrier to operator trust. Existing explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) techniques often fail to bridge this gap for non-specialists, producing technical outputs that are difficult to translate into actionable insights.
The paper presents a tri‑agent framework for evaluating large language models’ question‑clarification abilities. It involves a Question Clarifying Agent that identifies ambiguities and asks follow‑up questions, a Respondent Agent that simulates human replies, and an Evaluator Agent that judges the dialogue using metrics such as ambiguity handling, question quality, dialogue efficiency, language appropriateness, and intent alignment. The authors illustrate the approach with synthetic supply‑chain data and discuss validating the evaluator against human judgments.
arXiv:2606. 05176v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While large language models (LLMs) show strong performance in natural language understanding and generation, their evaluation and adaptation to domain-specific constraints in telecommunications customer support remain limited.
XAI-Arena proposes using large language models (LLMs) as judges to evaluate the quality of explainable AI (XAI) explanations, aiming for reproducibility, scalability, and multidimensional assessment. The framework assesses dimensions such as simplicity, clarity, task adequacy, trust calibration, actionability, transparency, faithfulness, and overall interpretability across different datasets, models, and stakeholder personas. Human validation shows a strong positive correlation between LLM-generated and human ratings (Spearman's rho = .693, p < .001), supporting the viability of LLM-based evaluations.

arXiv:2603. 02070v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: When automating plan generation for a real-world sequential decision problem, the goal is often not to replace the human planner, but to facilitate an iterative reasoning and elicitation process, where the human's role is to guide the AI planner according to their preferences and expertise.
arXiv:2606. 19735v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While global explanations are crucial for understanding vision models across datasets, classes, and decision contexts, their complex and monolithic nature often hinders practical exploration.
arXiv:2508. 10971v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Knowledge graphs (KGs) can be enhanced through rule mining; however, the resulting logical rules are often difficult for humans to interpret due to their inherent complexity and the idiosyncratic labeling conventions of individual KGs.
