************************************************************************************************************************************* 

The 4th International Workshop on EXplainable and TRAnsparent AI and Multi-Agent Systems (EXTRAAMAS 2022) 
Auckland, New Zealand (fully online), 9 - 10 May 2022 

https://extraamas.ehealth.hevs.ch/ 

held in conjunction with: 

21st International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, May 09-13, 2022 Auckland, New Zealand 

https://aamas2022-conference.auckland.ac.nz/ 

************************************************************************************************************************************** 
Aim and Scope: 
============== 

The workshop aims to gather researchers interested in developing explainable approaches to Artificial Intelligence (AI), in particular to explainable agency, learning, reasoning, and their intersections. 
Participants are invited to submit papers addressing whichever phase of explainability (e.g., generation, communication, and reception) fostering transparency in autonomous agents and Multi-Agent Systems (MAS), robots, and other intelligent systems. 
This edition of the workshop has three particular focus topics with the ultimate goal to strengthen cutting-edge foundational and applied research: 
1. XAI Fundamentals 
2. XAI in Action: Applied perspectives 
3. XAI and Law Cross-disciplinary Perspectives 


Important Dates: 
================ 

Deadline for Submissions: 1 March 2022
