Despite the growing use of deep neural networks in safety-critical decision-making, their inherent black-box nature hinders transparency and interpretability. Explainable AI (XAI) methods have thus emerged to understand a model's internal workings, and notably attribution methods also called saliency maps. Conventional attribution methods typically identify the locations -- the where -- of significant regions within an input. However, because they overlook the inherent structure of the input data, these methods often fail to interpret what these regions represent in terms of structural components (e.g., textures in images or transients in sounds). Furthermore, existing methods are usually tailored to a single data modality, limiting their generalizability. In this paper, we propose leveraging the wavelet domain as a robust mathematical foundation for attribution. Our approach, the Wavelet Attribution Method (WAM) extends the existing gradient-based feature attributions into the wavelet domain, providing a unified framework for explaining classifiers across images, audio, and 3D shapes. Empirical evaluations demonstrate that WAM matches or surpasses state-of-the-art methods across faithfulness metrics and models in image, audio, and 3D explainability. Finally, we show how our method explains not only the where -- the important parts of the input -- but also the what -- the relevant patterns in terms of structural components.

While there is universal agreement that agents ought to act ethically, there is no agreement as to what constitutes ethical behaviour. To address this problem, recent philosophical approaches to `moral uncertainty' propose aggregation of multiple ethical theories to guide agent behaviour. However, one of the foundational proposals for aggregation - Maximising Expected Choiceworthiness (MEC) - has been criticised as being vulnerable to fanaticism; the problem of an ethical theory dominating agent behaviour despite low credence (confidence) in said theory. Fanaticism thus undermines the `democratic' motivation for accommodating multiple ethical perspectives. The problem of fanaticism has not yet been mathematically defined. Representing moral uncertainty as an instance of social welfare aggregation, this paper contributes to the field of moral uncertainty by 1) formalising the problem of fanaticism as a property of social welfare functionals and 2) providing non-fanatical alternatives to MEC, i.e. Highest k-trimmed Mean and Highest Median.

The old empathetic adage, ``Walk a mile in their shoes,'' asks that one imagine the difficulties others may face. This suggests a new ML counterfactual fairness criterion, based on a \textit{group} level: How would members of a nonprotected group fare if their group were subject to conditions in some protected group? Instead of asking what sentence would a particular Caucasian convict receive if he were Black, take that notion to entire groups; e.g. how would the average sentence for all White convicts change if they were Black, but with their same White characteristics, e.g. same number of prior convictions? We frame the problem and study it empirically, for different datasets. Our approach also is a solution to the problem of covariate correlation with sensitive attributes.

The United Arab Emirates' Mohamed Bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence and Israel's Weizmann Institute of Science have agreed to work together, UAE state news agency WAM said on Sunday. The memorandum of understanding follows the UAE's decision a month ago to normalize relations with Israel. Both countries have said they hope normalized ties will bring economic and technological benefits. The MoU is the first signed between Israeli and UAE higher education bodies, WAM said, intending to "advance the development and use of artificial intelligence as a tool for progress. Spheres of possible collaboration include academic exchanges, conferences, sharing computing resources and the establishment of a joint virtual institute for artificial intelligence, WAM said.

A useful step towards better interpretation and analysis of the usage patterns is to formalize the semantics of the resources that users are accessing in the Web. We focus on this problem and present an approach for the semantic formalization of usage logs, which lays the basis for eective techniques of querying expressive usage patterns. We also present a query answering approach, which is useful to nd in the logs expressive patterns of usage behavior via formulation of semantic and temporal-based constraints. We have processed over 30 thousand user browsing sessions extracted from usage logs of DBPedia and Semantic Web Dog Food. All these events are formalized semantically using respective domain ontologies and RDF representations of the Web resources being accessed. We show the eectiveness of our approach through experimental results, providing in this way an exploratory analysis of the way users browse theWeb of Data.
