Research interest

My current research interests and focus concern the application potentials of human-centered artificial intelligence (AI) and explainable AI (XAI). In particular, my research relates to the question of how explanations in AI-supported interactive systems should be designed in order to increase trust and acceptance of system decisions from the user's perspective.
