These are pieces of research that present innovative ideas, preliminary results, and system prototypes addressing the theory and practice of eXplainable Artificial Intelligence.

It<\/strong> provides a unique opportunity to share valuable ideas, <strong>elicit helpful feedback on early-stage work<\/strong>, and <strong>foster discussions and collaborations <\/strong>among colleagues. Late-breaking work is research in progress that must include original, unpublished accounts of innovative research ideas, preliminary results, industry showcases, and system prototypes addressing explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) theory and practice. In addition, articles introducing recently started research projects or summarising project results are welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Authors are required to submit a single PDF containing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\" style=\"font-size:14px\"><table><tbody><tr><td>1<\/td><td> A manuscript describing the late-breaking work and the preliminary findings <mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">(max 8 pages, including references) -&gt; (required)<\/mark><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Demonstrations<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Demonstrations will showcase research prototypes or commercially available products in a dedicated session. Demo submissions must be based on an implemented and tested XAI-based system that advances one or more innovative ideas within the conference&#8217;s focus areas. Demonstrations are an effective way to showcase XAI-based system implementations and gather valuable feedback from the community. Each demo submission must determine which aspects of the proposed XAI-based system will be demonstrated on-site at the conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Authors of demos are required to submit the following information:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\" style=\"font-size:14px\"><table><tbody><tr><td>1<\/td><td>A manuscript describing the xAI-based system and its technical details and functioning <mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">(max 8 pages, including references) -&gt; (required)<\/mark><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2<\/td><td>A note (in the <strong>Notes by authors<\/strong> field) describing how demonstrators will present the demo [for example, on their laptop as a pre-recorded video or via interactive technology.
