To date, many initiatives have been proposed. Nevertheless, current research efforts mainly focus on methods tailored to specific ML tasks and algorithms, such as image classification and sentiment analysis. However, explanation techniques are still embryotic, and they mainly target ML experts rather than heterogeneous end-users. Furthermore, existing solutions assume data to be centralized, homogeneous, and fully/continuously accessible—circumstances seldom found altogether in practice. Arguably, a system-wide perspective is currently missing. The project named “Personalized Explainable Artificial Intelligence for decentralized Agents with Heterogeneous Knowledge” (Expectation)aims at overcoming such limitations. This manuscript presents the overall objectives and approach of the Expectationproject, focusing on the theoretical and practical advancement of the state of the art of XAI towards the construction of personalized explanations in spite of decentralization and heterogeneity of knowledge, agents, and explainees (both humans or virtual).To tackle the challenges posed by personalization, decentralization, and heterogeneity, the project fruitfully combines abstractions, methods, and approaches from the multi-agent systems, knowledge extraction/injection, negotiation, argumentation, and symbolic reasoning communities.
