Min huvudsakliga forskning vid Umeå universitet fokuserar på Explainable Artificial intelligence (XAI) och särskilt på så kallad "utfallsförklaring", det vill säga att förklara och/eller motivera resultat, handlingar eller rekommendationer från någon form av AI-system, inklusive (djupa eller inte) neurala nätverk. En huvudsaklig teknik är metoden Contextual Importance and Utility (CIU) som jag utvecklade under min doktorsavhandling 1991–1996.  

Under 2000–2018 var ämnen som intelligenta produkter, sakernas internet, digital tvilling (eller virtuell motpart/produktagent) och system-av-system mina huvudsakliga forskningsområden. Min forskning på XAI upprätthåller en stark koppling till dessa domäner, det vill säga för att möjliggöra användning av AI i vardagslivet och i vardagliga produkter. För att säkerställa att AI förblir "humant" är det avgörande att AI-systemen ska kunna kommunicera orsakerna till sina handlingar och avsikter på ett sätt som är förståeligt för olika slutanvändare och lämpligt för den verkliga situationen.
