A Frank System for Co-Evolutionary Hybrid Decision-Making

We introduce Frank, a human-in-the-loop system for co-evolutionary hybrid decision-making aiding the user to label records from an un-labeled dataset. Frank employs incremental learning to ``evolve'' in parallel with the user's decisions, by training an interpretable machine learning model on the records labeled by the user. Furthermore, Frank advances state-of-the-art approaches by offering inconsistency controls, explanations, fairness checks, and bad-faith safeguards simultaneously. We evaluate our proposal by simulating the users' behavior with various levels of expertise and reliance on Frank's suggestions. The experiments show that Frank's intervention leads to improvements in the accuracy and the fairness of the decisions.

Bridging the Gap in Hybrid Decision-Making Systems

We introduce BRIDGET, a novel human-in-the-loop system for hybrid decision-making, aiding the user to label records from an un-labeled dataset, attempting to ``bridge the gap'' between the two most popular Hybrid Decision-Making paradigms: those featuring the human in a leading position, and the other with a machine making most of the decisions. BRIDGET understands when either a machine or a human user should be in charge, dynamically switching between two statuses. In the different statuses, BRIDGET still fosters the human-AI interaction, either having a machine learning model assuming skeptical stances towards the user and offering them suggestions, or towards itself and calling the user back. We believe our proposal lays the groundwork for future synergistic systems involving a human and a machine decision-makers.
