The XAI Demonstrator is a modular platform that lets users interact with production-grade Explainable AI (XAI) systems.

For general information, see our project website at xai-demonstrator.github.io.

If you just want to try the XAI Demonstrator, have a look at the list of publicly accessible deployments below.

Running the XAI Demonstrator locally requires Docker (but nothing else). If you're new to Docker, see the Docker Desktop installation instructions.

The fastest way to start a local version of the most recent development version of the XAI Demonstrator is to use the test-local deployment configuration:

cd deployment/test-local
docker-compose up

Then, you can reach the app at localhost:8000.

To start a local instance of the XAI Demonstrator built from source, run docker-compose up in the top-level directory, wait for all builds to complete, and access the app at localhost:8000.

A technical documentation with user guides is taking shape at xai-demonstrator.github.io/xai-demonstrator/.

Each use case illustrates a particular application of user-centric XAI methods.

Code	Description	Build	Test
review-sentiment	Explain the sentiment analysis of customer reviews by a multi-lingual BERT model using gradient-based feature importance explanation methods		BE: FE:
visual-inspection	Visually explain the classification of images using model-agnostic local explanation methods		BE: FE:

You can try out a standalone version each use case locally by running docker-compose up in the respective directory. Then, the use case is available at localhost:8000.

Package	Description	Build	Test
common/backend-utils	Python package providing common functionality for FastAPI backend services
common/vue-components	NPM package providing common VueJS components for frontends
landing-page	Frontend that serves as a common entry point to all use cases.

Configuration	Location	Description	Status
test-deployment	https://test.xaidemo.de	Latest version of the landing page and all use cases
