Human-Centric Machine Learning concerns the design of machine learning algorithms and models for interaction with humans in real-world scenarios. The seminar will cover foundational and current research on human-centric machine learning topics, namely explainability, interpretability, fairness, and interactive machine learning. We will discuss definitions, methods for achieving human-centric machine learning, and practical application cases. Students will be expected to
1) give a presentation on one subtopic of the seminar, 2) actively participate in discussing the presentations of other students, and 3) write an essay of 5-15 pages on their topic.
