Title: Empowering humans with machines: from explanations to teaching

Abstract: Artificial intelligence models are increasingly used to assist humans in decision making tasks. However, they solve problems in different ways than humans do, resulting in different performance of human-AI teams. An ideal human-AI collaboration system should leverage the strengths of both humans and AI, and mitigate their weaknesses. In this presentation, I will talk about how to empower humans with AI systems on decision making tasks. In Part I, I will talk about an investigation on how different distribution types and explanation types influence human-AI team performance on text classification and recidivism prediction. In Part II, I will talk about how to build AI-driven tutorials to assist and teach human to do natural and medical image classification.
