Applications can now notonly retrieve results but also use term meanings to derive new results.Thus, explaining results has become an important new interaction modefor Semantic Web applications. The explanation interaction mode needs toprovide transparency and accountability to application results. We havedeveloped an explanation infrastructure that can provide Semantic Webconsumers (humans and agents) with explanations for results, such aswhere results came from and how they were derived. We have addressedexplanation requirements for applications that range from intelligentanalyst assistants that leverage text analytics to transparent andaccountable reasoning systems that protect user privacy. In this paper,we will describe some Semantic Web user interaction requirements andparadigms that are important for Semantic Web applications. inproceedings Proceedings of the 3rd International Semantic Web User Interaction Workshop (SWUI'06) KSL-06-14 Explanation Interfaces for the Semantic Web: Issues and Models KSL-06-14 2006 Year Tr id Title Computer science Tag Slides url Inference web Relation Paper url Media:KSL-06-14.pdf Paper November Month Key Booktitle Bibtype Vasco Furtado Honglei Zeng Cynthia Chang Alyssa Glass Li Ding Deborah L.
