text: In this paper we consider the interactive processes by which an explainer
and an explainee cooperate to produce an explanation, which we refer to as co-construction.
Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is concerned with the development of
intelligent systems and robots that can explain and justify their actions, decisions,
recommendations, and so on. However, the cooperative construction of explanations
remains a key but under-explored issue. This short paper proposes an architecture
for intelligent systems that promotes a co-constructive and interactive approach
to explanation generation. By outlining its basic components and their specific
roles, we aim to contribute to the advancement of XAI computational frameworks
that actively engage users in the explanation process.

text: In explanatory interactions, explainees are expected to continuously provide
feedback to explainers by signaling whether they understand an ongoing explanation.
The study presented in this paper is based on the hypothesis that explainees use
a set of multimodal cues, including vocalizations, facial expressions, and movements
of the torso, head, and hands, to do so. We test this hypothesis by building a
random forest classifier based on a multimodal corpus of dyadic explanations (21
explainers and explainees), in which windows of understanding or non-understanding
were identified by participants in a retrospective video recall task. Results
show that sequences of understanding can indeed be differentiated from those of
non-understanding, and that a diverse set of predictors covering a wide range
of modalities contributes to this classification. Due to data sparsity and a high
degree of individual variation, the generalizability of our results is currently
limited, but they support our hypothesis of the relevance of multimodal display
in explanatory interactions.

text: 'We examined the turn-taking dynamics across different phases of explanatory
dialogues, in which 21 different explainers explained a board game to 2–3 explainees
each. Turn-taking dynamics are investigated focusing on >19K floor transitions,
i.e., the detailed patterns characterizing turn keeping or turn yielding events
(Gilmartin et al., 2020). The explanations were characterized by three different
phases (board game absent, board game present, interactive game play), for which
we observed differences in turn-taking dynamics: explanations where the board
game is absent are characterized by less complex floor transitions, while explanations
with a concretely shared reference space are characterized by more complex floor
transitions, as well as more floor transitions between interlocutors. Also, the
speakers’ dialogue role (explainer vs. explainee) appears to have a strong impact
on turn-taking dynamics, as floor transitions that do not conform with the dialogue
role tend to involve more effort, or floor management work.'
