EXPLAINABLE AI · STRIDE XAI

Interpreting the
hidden structures
AI learns.

What has AI learned, and how does it make decisions?
CHAESTRO turns the structure of AI decisions and the interactions behind them into explanations people can understand.

From mathematical structure to real-world questions.

STRIDE XAI

Beyond importance.
Into the structure of decisions.

STRIDE is an explainable AI research framework that decomposes model predictions into functional components, revealing how individual factors act and interact.

01 · FUNCTIONAL EXPLANATION

From how much it matters
to how it works

Go beyond a single importance score to examine the functional patterns in how predictions change with the inputs.

02 · INTERACTIONS

What factors reveal
when they act together

Separate patterns that individual factors alone cannot explain, and analyze how a model combines multiple conditions.

03 · RESEARCH TO PRACTICE

Connecting research
to real-world data

Define the model, data and practical questions together, then explore STRIDE's applicability through a proof of concept (PoC).

STRIDE XAIExplainable Artificial Intelligence
Research on AI decision structures and interactions

Economics taught me to bring structure to complex phenomena. Philosophy led me to questions of truth, essence and knowledge. Mathematics gave me a language for turning intuition into rigorous structures and proofs. I went on to develop STRIDE XAI through explainable AI research, and founded CHAESTRO to bring that work into technology, products and a company.
