Bio

Inga Ibs joined the lab as a PhD student in June 2020.

From 2020-2023 she is part of the PlexPlain Project investigating approaches for explainable AI for linear programs.

Since 2023 she is part of the LOEWE Research Cluster WhiteBox reseraching methods to make AI and Humans more explainable.

Resarch interests

I am currently interested in understanding how human observers of complex systems build explanations for the system's behavior and how similar explanations can be automatically generated for complex artificial intelligence-based systems to aid human understanding of these systems.

During my studies in Cognitive Science at Osnabrück University I worked on probabilistic modeling of decision making under uncertainty and their applications in medical and legal contexts.
