== Proceedings ==&lt;br /&gt;
[12:17] Gary Berg-Cross: I am back from travels.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:22] ToddSchneider: Are we assuming 'explanations' use 'reasoning'?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:22] RaviSharma: David Whitten did contribute last year and NIH and NLM folks might also be able to add to Ram's efforts / track&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:23] Ken Baclawski: Gary would like a track on common sense.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:23] RaviSharma: Todd Yes I think but not always?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:23] AlexShkotin: @Todd - Yes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:24] RaviSharma: Todd for example facts from database already accepted or known may not require reasoning again?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:24] Gary Berg-Cross: Reasoning and explanation - think of a Venn diagram.  Some overlap but the dynamics of how they relate is the more interesting and complex Q.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:24] ToddSchneider: Then we may need a introductory presentation on 'reasoning', in its various forms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:24] MikeBennett: @Todd good question.- at least for the business facing things (finance, medical) surely it's about a range of tech techniques (semantic query, inference processing) explained in terms that the stakeholder can understand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:26] RaviSharma: Todd it is a good idea as it would create a notional Venn diagram that would list the extent Explanations and reasoning are related.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:36] ToddSchneider: Gary's suggestion on how a track could be organized, general situation, then how ontologies can help, would be very good.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:36] Gary Berg-Cross: The point on ontologies and explanation I tried to make in the EMycin example is that there is notable experience with explanations that involve rules and other artifacts and designs that do not use ontologies in a central way or at all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:38] ToddSchneider: So we need a presentation on possible mechanisms for explanation?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:39] MikeBennett: Ontology is not just reasoning. You can do SPARQL (semantic) queries. You can use the reasoner to classify subject matter and you can dump the results in to some other data store to carry out mathematical operations, graphical explanations; you can run higher orders of logic / procedural code etc. over such data, and so on. All ontology based, not all reasoning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:40] Gary Berg-Cross: If we do a fall session we should ask ourselves what we learned at this approach from last year.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:46] Gary Berg-Cross: If last Fall was more popular we should try to understand why.  Is the ontology addition a bit more of a heavy lift??&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:48] ToddSchneider: Ken, Gary, you need to isolate your microphone from the desktop and the keyboard.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:48] Gary Berg-Cross: One suggestion for improvement is that we should end the Fall session with some clearly stated idea of how the Spring sessions will build on the generated interest and address some issues identified.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:50] Gary Berg-Cross: We did have problems getting speakers for some tracks.  Let's develop a spreadsheet on possible speakers for tracks that we can share.  This has worked in the past.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:55] Ken Baclawski: Ram will help find speakers for one or two XAI sessions in the Fall, and John will find a speaker on help systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:56] RaviSharma: I think XAI will help us find examples and domains&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[12:59] Gary Berg-Cross: I won't be able to be on the call next Wed. I am running my annual ontology VoCamp at NIH next week.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[13:00] Gary Berg-Cross: Nov. 7th session - John, maybe Donna???&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[13:01] Gary Berg-Cross: I will also miss the meeting of the 7th - I am overseas that week.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[13:03] Gary Berg-Cross: The Workshop  IJCAI 2017 Workshop on Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI)  http://home.earthlink.net/~dwaha/research/meetings/ijcai17-xai/  Some speakers would likely come from that workshop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[13:05] Gary Berg-Cross: Possible speaker http://home.earthlink.net/~dwaha/  &lt;br /&gt;
