Cover Story: With human-in-the-loop machine learning, the human experts can steer the learning objective not only for accuracy but also for discrimination rules, where the goal is to separate one class from others. We demonstrate how interaction enables humans to gain insights into the dataset and to validate the learned models. We propose interaction during construction of the learned model to incorporate human knowledge. We argue that understandable classification directly contributes to explainable artificial intelligence. We use parallel coordinates to visualise decision tree classifiers but also assist humans with the generation of interpretable oblique splits. We show that discrimination rules are well communicated using parallel coordinates. Our usability study confirms the merits of our approach. View this paper
