让AI生成符合专家认知风格的科学解释,提升可信度与效率。

Shaping Scientific Explanations to Expert Perspectives with Persona-Conditioned Reinforcement Learning

  • 用角色化人格模拟专家判断差异,动态调整解释内容。
  • 实验显示新方法使专家反馈时间减少90%以上,效果媲美顶尖模型。
  • 适合需要个性化解释的科研场景,尤其药物发现领域。

可解释人工智能在科学发现中日益重要,但现有方法忽略了一个关键事实:解释质量并非普适——专家在证据评估、机制优先级和叙事构建上存在差异。本文提出基于角色的条件化解释框架,通过药物发现中的知识图谱推理路径,发现专家偏好可归纳为一致的认知视角,并以智能体角色表示这些视角。基于角色对齐的奖励信号,引导强化学习生成解释,无需大规模专家标注。用户研究显示,该方法生成的解释更受青睐,显著提升相关性与可信度;同时达到或超越当前最优预测性能,专家反馈时间降低两个数量级。结果表明解释质量具有视角依赖性,建模这种差异可实现可扩展且以人为本的科学解释生成。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Explainable AI is increasingly important to scientific discovery. However, existing methods largely ignore that explanation quality is not universal: experts differ in how they assess evidence, prioritize mechanisms, and construct explanatory narratives. We introduce perspective-conditioned explanations, a framework for adapting explanation generation to epistemic variation in expert judgment. Using knowledge graph reasoning paths in drug discovery, we show that preferences organize into coherent epistemic perspectives that can be captured by agentic personas, representations of how experts evaluate explanations. Persona-aligned rewards then guide reinforcement learning-based explanation generation without large-scale expert supervision. Expert user studies show that perspective-conditioned explanations are preferred over general-purpose explanations and improve perceived relevance and validity. Moreover, they match or exceed state-of-the-art predictive performance and reduce expert feedback time by two orders of magnitude. Together, these findings demonstrate that explanation quality is perspective-dependent and that modeling this variation enables scalable and human-aligned explanation generation for scientific discovery.
