El sistema ayuda a los humanos a predecir cuándo los coches autónomos cometerán errores

Un nuevo método, llamado CW-Net, traduce el proceso de razonamiento del sistema de IA de un vehículo autónomo en conceptos comprensibles que explican su comportamiento.

Self-driving cars are often controlled by deep learning models that sometimes fail in unexpected situations. For instance, the car might inexplicably brake and block the path of an oncoming emergency vehicle. A human driver or passenger may need to react rapidly to prevent a collision. To help humans better anticipate a vehicle’s mistakes, researchers from MIT and autonomous vehicle technology company Motional developed a new method that provides clear explanations of the underlying model’s decisions. Usually, the internal reasoning process of a deep learning model is opaque and difficult to understand. But the new method, called the Concept-Wrapper Network (CW-Net), translates that reasoning process into concepts that faithfully describe the
