Designing AI Support for Human Involvement in AI-assisted Decision Making: A Taxonomy of Human-AI Interactions from a Systematic Review
Oct 31, 2023
Efforts in levering Artificial Intelligence (AI) in decision support systems have disproportionately focused on technological advancements, often overlooking the alignment between algorithmic outputs and human expectations. To address this, explainable AI promotes AI development from a more human-centered perspective. Determining what information AI should provide to aid humans is vital, however, how the information is presented, e. g., the sequence of recommendations and the solicitation of interpretations, is equally crucial. This motivates the need to more precisely study Human-AI interaction as a pivotal component of AI-based decision support. While several empirical studies have evaluated Human-AI interactions in multiple application domains in which interactions can take many forms, there is not yet a common vocabulary to describe human-AI interaction protocols. To address this gap, we describe the results of a systematic review of the AI-assisted decision making literature, analyzing 105 selected articles, which grounds the introduction of a taxonomy of interaction patterns that delineate various modes of human-AI interactivity. We find that current interactions are dominated by simplistic collaboration paradigms and report comparatively little support for truly interactive functionality. Our taxonomy serves as a valuable tool to understand how interactivity with AI is currently supported in decision-making contexts and foster deliberate choices of interaction designs.
Automatic Tip Detection of Surgical Instruments in Biportal Endoscopic Spine Surgery
Nov 07, 2019
Some endoscopic surgeries require a surgeon to hold the endoscope with one hand and the surgical instruments with the other hand to perform the actual surgery with correct vision. Recent technical advances in deep learning as well as in robotics can introduce robotics to these endoscopic surgeries. This can have numerous advantages by freeing one hand of the surgeon, which will allow the surgeon to use both hands and to use more intricate and sophisticated techniques. Recently, deep learning with convolutional neural network achieves state-of-the-art results in computer vision. Therefore, the aim of this study is to automatically detect the tip of the instrument, localize a point, and evaluate detection accuracy in biportal endoscopic spine surgery. The localized point could be used for the controller's inputs of robotic endoscopy in these types of endoscopic surgeries.
