The X-RAI tutorial & workshop convenes industrial AI professionals and explainability experts to explore XAI developments and applications in industrial settings. Participants engage with the latest research, best practices, and challenges, fostering collaboration between researchers and engineers. Integrating explainability into Industry 4.0 and 5.0 ensures AI system reliability, trustworthiness, and transparency. While focusing on industrial applications, X-RAI encourages submissions applying various XAI paradigms across domains like healthcare and decision-making.
The 1st edition of X-RAI will be at the ECML-PKDD 2024 conference.

The X-RAI tutorial & workshop aims to bring industrial AI professionals together with explainability experts to discuss the latest developments in XAI and their practical applications as well as theoretical works aiming at solving real-life problems in industrial settings. The tutorial & workshop will provide an opportunity for attendees to learn about the latest research, best practices, and challenges in this area. It is an opportunity to bridge researchers and engineers to discuss emerging topics and the newest trends. The integration of explainability in Industry 4.0 and 5.0 is crucial to ensure AI systems' reliability, trustworthiness, transparency and robustness. Although in X-RAI we focus mainly on Industrial applications, we are also encouraging to submit works that apply different paradigms of XAI as a means of solving particular problems in many different domains such as, healthcare, planning, decision making, etc. Each of these domains use different types of data, which require different techniques to display the model explanations properly. In this regard, it is common to find heatmaps on top of images highlighting the most important pixels for the model prediction, but the analogous for other types of data such as tabular data, time series or graphs is not so well studied. Thus, works that describe visual integrations of model explanations for other types of data rather than images and language will also be of interest in the session. We also focus on application of XAI methods in the machine learning/data mining pipeline in order to aid data scientists in building better AI systems. Such applications include, but are not limited to: feature engineering with XAI, feature and model selection with XAI, evaluation and visualization of ML/DM training process with XAI. Finally, we are also interested in the development of tools that integrate in a transparent and easy way the use of XAI methods, within the current popular machine & deep learning libraries.
Overall, we are interested in receiving papers related to the following topics which include but are not limited to:
Real-world applications such as:
