The manuscript “Transparency As Design Publicity: Explaining and Justifying Inscrutable Algorithms” by Andrea Ferrario (Mobiliar Lab for Analytics at ETH and Chair of Technology Marketing, ETH), Michele Loi and Eleonora Viganò (University of Zurich) has been accepted for publication in Ethics and Information Technology. The paper proposes a novel form of transparency for technological artifacts using machine learning models that, compared to black box-driven approaches, can be more easily linked with the justification of their use and of the design of the models.
