The relationship between artificial intelligence and psychological theoriesEr. rahul abhishek
Psychology is one of the parent elements of artificial
intelligence or we can also say that it is the main source for
artificial intelligence. In this paper we are discussing about the
theories of psychology used in AI. Since psychology is the study
of human brain and its nature and AI is the branch which deals
with the intelligence in machine, so for understanding the
intelligence of a machine we have to compare with human
intelligence because AI means the intelligence shown by a
machine like a human being.

Oleksander Krakovetskyi "Explaining a Machine Learning blackbox"Fwdays
As Data Scientists we want to understand machine learning models we have built. “Why did my model make this mistake?”, “Does my model discriminate?”, “How can I understand and trust the model's decisions?”, “Does my model satisfy legal requirements?” are commonly asked questions.
In this presentation we will talk about machine learning explainability and interpretability - two concepts that could help us really understand ML models.

The Design and Evaluation of DACADE Visual Tool: Theoretical ImplicationsjournalBEEI
A goal of every designer is to create successful products for consumers. In creating a successful product, it is crucial for a designer to understand consumers’ perceptions of a product early in the design process. Nevertheless, design students lack the necessary data collection and user testing skills to support effective design decision-making. Consequently, their products might not be acceptable to the intended consumers and are thus likely to fail in the marketplace. For design students to acquire those skills, design curricula should incorporate statistical courses teaching the concepts of data and user testing. We addressed this challenge by developing an automated visual tool named DACADE, assisting design students to systematically collect and analyze data. This paper reports the theoretical implications discovered during the process from designing through to implementing and evaluating DACADE concerning the transfer of learning, the appropriateness of graphics used in a software tool, and user motivation in a learning environment.

ONE POINT OF VIEW
Paul N. Friga and Richard B. Chapas
MAKE BETTER BUSINESS DECISIONS
Decision-making in today’s environment is difficult, and
new managers in R&D and other technical positions are
often shocked at the lack of systematic decision-making
they find in their interactions with upper management
and their peers in other parts of the organization.
However, there is a well-tested source of insight into how
to improve the decision-making in business: the scien-
tific method. Although it has revolutionized our lives and
the ability to manipulate our material world, the scien-
tific method has not been widely adapted for business
executives. Nevertheless, we believe it can improve the
efficiency and effectiveness of decision-making for
executives, research managers, and business leaders in
general.
In this article, we first examine the typical decision-
making environment in organizations, highlighting the
challenges executives face in their quest for better per-
formance. Next, we introduce some of the basic tenets
from the scientific method and describe how they can
play a role in overcoming several of the key decision-
making deficiencies. We then describe a five-step
process that can assist in the implementation of scientific
method techniques in daily decision-making, illustrated
by a case study relating to new technology develop-
ment.
Challenges Executives Face
Three key macro-level elements that differentiate the
daily decision-making of today include information
overload, shareholder pressure, and shortened business
cycle time:
• The search tools in use for problem solving by execu-
tives at most companies today yield a quantity of infor-
mation that can be overwhelming. This situation has
increased the importance of knowledge management
skills to sort the data, identify what is truly relevant, and
then to create value from it.
• Shareholder pressure, a result of the rise in worldwide
capital markets, has led to a relentless drive to achieve
short-term financial results, often at the expense of long-
term considerations. A number of well-known corporate
failures may have resulted from the pressure to achieve
consistent growth at any cost.
• Finally, the time-to-market and overall business cycles
have shortened to a level unimaginable 50 years ago.
Decisions must be made faster than ever before (1).
Ultimately, decision-making is done on an individual
level. Alarmingly, much of the research suggests that
humans are extremely limited in their decision-making
Paul Friga was clinical associate professor of strategic
management at the Kelley School of Business at
Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana, when this
article was written. He is now a professor at the
Kenen-Flager School of Business, Chapel Hill, North

Automated machine learning: the new data science challengeIJECEIAES
The world is changing quite rapidly while increasingly tuning into digitalization. However, it is important to note that data science is what most technology is evolving around and data is definitely the future of everything. For industries, adopting a “data science approach” is no longer an option, it becomes an obligation in order to enhance their business rather than survive. This paper offers a roadmap for anyone interested in this research field or getting started with “machine learning” learning while enabling the reader to easily comprehend the key concepts behind. Indeed, it examines the benefits of automated machine learning systems, starting with defining machine learning vocabulary and basic concepts. Then, explaining how to, concretely, build up a machine learning model by highlighting the challenges related to data and algorithms. Finally, exposing a summary of two studies applying machine learning in two different fields, namely transportation for road traffic forecasting and supply chain management for demand prediction where the predictive performance of various models is compared based on different metrics.

Chapter 14: Question 3. How do human capital, structural capital, and customer capital differ?
ANSWER.
Human capital, structural capital and customer capital are three basic fundamentals of any organization. They differ in their roles playing for that organization. Human capital is the efficiency of a human being on the basis of its skills; more the human is skilled and efficient results in more human capital. On the structural capital is the efficiency of the organizations to provide environment in which they can increase the efficiencies of humans working for them such as data, systems, knowledge and designs. The customer capital is the relationship bond with organization products, stronger the bond between the customer and the products results in a stronger customer capital.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

What is understanding?
What is shallow understanding?
What is deep understanding?
Operationally, understanding is the ability to answer questions
of many different types correctly.
The ability to answer a limited range of questions thatare
similar to each other.
Understanding that is multilayered, and that involves broad
context, and that uses broad knowledge.
Etymology: The Latin verb intelligere means to understand, with the root meaning “to selectbetween.”
What can deep learning not do?
5. Is the answer really three? Maybe it isthree
and a half? Or three and twopieces?
Deep understanding combines language and
vision and knowledge and personal experience.
In this example, deep understanding requires
reasoning about occlusion, about gravity, about
social conventions, and more.

Examples: Face recognition, street sign recognition, question answering:

Q: Alexa, how high is MountEverest?
Q: Alexa, where is it located?
A: “ … 29,029 feet …”
A: “The address … is 318 3rd Ave ...”
AI systems need excessive quantities of training examples
Consider the regional meaning of wicked as in “It’s wicked cold outside.”A human needs
only one example, and some thinking, to know when and when not to use thisidiom.

How can we make healthcare visits more convenient for patients,
and more efficient for doctors?
1) The patient describes symptoms in freetext.
2) The app uses ML to select follow-ups from a setof standard
questions; the patient answers these.
3) The physician reads the answers, meets the patient, asks formore
information as needed.
4) The physician makes decisions: medicine, advice,referrals.
Only the physician needs deep understanding!
Example: Convenience and productivity in medicine

8. In general, ML is empirical, while traditional quantitative methods aredeductive.
• Monte Carlo methods are randomized, but stilldeductive.
• Combined methods have an empirical part called“calibration.”
ML is useful for tasks with less opportunity fordeduction.
Note: Any method can be a self-fulfillingprophecy!

9. ML expands what is feasible:
• Taking advantage of new types of data such as text and video.
• Massive models, sometimes with millions of trainablecoefficients.
• Answering new types of questions, and/or maximizing customizedobjectives.
Example: Estimating a market price for a real estateasset:
• It is empirical how different locations, roads, lot sizes, room types, style, etc. influence prices.
• We can estimate the probability distribution of prices--which is not a standard distribution.
• We can use photographs and news articles asinput.

ML versus other quantitative methods
10. Someone has to be a product manager. This person must (ML-specific tasksin blue):
1. Quantify the size of the businessopportunity.
2. Understand exactly what will be useful for business stakeholders, especially customers.
3. Figure out exactly what metrics should be maximized.
4. Understand which data is useful, find this data, and evaluate itsquality.
5. Design how the new system fits into existingsystems.
6. Quantify latency, volume, and other system needs.
7. Help design the user interface.
8. Design guardrails and monitoring.

How to drive a project that uses ML?
11. Example: Consider probability of default (PD and loss given default (LGD). Loans that may default are
restructured, and not recorded as defaults. So are we missing data about true economic losses?
Understanding the true business process

1. Lack of consensus on a relevant quantitativeobjective.
2. Too few decisions to be made, each one too important. Example: Venture capitalinvestments.
3. Outputs are not accurate enough to be useful. Example: Understanding legallanguage.
4. Real-time data and/or historical data are different, and/or notavailable.
5. The model is not explainable enough for stakeholders to feelcomfortable.
6. The ML method is held to a higher standardthan
humans, or than the current businessprocess.
Risks for an ML application
13. Do use the latest AI methods to discover patterns in data
Analyze multiple types of data simultaneously
Expect super-human performance in some ways, but not in deep understanding
Look for systems that use the complementary strengths of software and ofhumans
Do not expect genuine artificial intelligence in the foreseeablefuture
But don’t be confident that genuine AI isimpossible
We can’t predict when, but there will be more breakthroughs in research in the future
Speculating about super-intelligence is like speculating about life on otherplanets
