Towards a Taxonomy for Interpretable and Interactive Machine Learning

We propose a taxonomy for classifying and describing papers which contribute to making Machine Learning (ML) techniques interactive and interpretable for users. The taxonomy is composed of six elements – Dataset, Optimizer, Model, Predictions, Evaluator and Goodness – where each can bemade available for user interpretation and interaction. We give definitions to the terms interpretable and interactive in the context of useroriented Machine Learning, describe the role of each of the elements in the taxonomy, and describe papers as seen through the lens of the proposed taxonomy
