Abstract
User-driven exploration functionality, referred to herein as a Scratchpad, is a post-learning extension for machine learning systems. For example, in ESP, consisting of the Predictor (a surrogate model of the domain) and Prescriptor (a solution generator model), the Scratchpad allows the user to modify the suggestions of the Prescriptor, and evaluate each such modification interactively with the Predictor. Thus, the Scratchpad makes it possible for the human expert and the AI to work together in designing better solutions. This interactive exploration also allows the user to conclude that the solutions derived in this process are the best found, making the process trustworthy and transparent to the user.
