EDBT 2025 : Presenting GLOVES for Enhanced AI Explainability

At the EDBT 2025 conference in Barcelona (March 25-28, 2025), ATHENA RC showcased a groundbreaking innovation developed under the ExtremeXP project: Global Counterfactual-based Visual Explanations (GLOVES). This powerful visualization platform aims to improve the explainability of decision-making systems through Global Counterfactual Explanations (GCE).

Introducing GLOVES : A Step Toward Transparent AI

As AI systems become more complex, the need for interpretability grows. GLOVES addresses this challenge by :

Enhancing AI decision transparency through global counterfactual explanations that illustrate alternative decision paths.
Integrating advanced visualization tools to facilitate a clearer understanding of AI-driven choices.
Supporting debugging and refinement of AI models, making them more reliable and user-friendly.

A Successful Demo at EDBT 2025

During the event, Nikolas Theologitis and Panagiotis Gidarakos from ATHENA RC presented a demo paper on GLOVES, showcasing its real-world applications. The presentation attracted significant interest from researchers, industry experts, and practitioners, who recognized the importance of explainable AI in critical decision-making environments.

Looking Ahead : The Future of Explainable AI

With tools like GLOVES, AI models can become more transparent, accountable, and trustworthy. As the field of counterfactual-based AI explanations evolves, ExtremeXP continues to push the boundaries of human-centered AI for more informed and ethical decision-making.
