NL4XAI PhD training days

On 15 and 16 Dec 2022 the next NL4XAI training event, NTP-6, will be organised at Utrecht University, The Netherlands. The event will focus on the question of how the quality of algorithms in this area should be assessed. A range of speakers from industry and academia will share their experiences with ESRs and others. Crucially, ESRs will also be given hands-on experience with the design of evaluation experiments.

A central theme will mirror some widely reported experiences in experimental psychology, namely that experiments with human participants can be extremely difficult to replicate, for example because crucial details are missing from the research articles in which the experiments are reported. ESRs will get experience identifying these problems in existing studies, and they will learn to work in a way that will ensure replicability of the evaluation studies they will conduct in the remainder of their PhD project. Materials will be distributed in advance of the meeting.
Online access for the morning sessions is free. However for organisational purposes, we ask you to kindly fill in the registration form.
 
Below, the tentative time schedule, hence subject to change.

The event is finished.
