The interdisciplinary Collaborative Research Center TRR 318 Constructing Explainability explores the ways in which explanations are created, negotiated, and made meaningful across contexts. Previous editions of the conference have addressed different dimensions of explanation, including understanding and contextualising.
The 4th TRR 318 Conference turns to a perspective that has recently gained increasing attention in explainability research: Social XAI (sXAI), which conceptualizes explainability as a social practice. Accordingly, the topic of the upcoming conference is “Scaffolding Social XAI.”
Extended Abstracts may be submitted until November 1, 2026.
