Mobility as a Service (MaaS) combines various modes of transportation to present mobility services to travellers based on their transport needs. This paper proposes a knowledge-based framework based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) to integrate various mobility data types and provide travellers with customized services. The proposed framework includes a knowledge acquisition process to extract and structure data from multiple sources of information (such as mobility experts and weather data). It also adds new information to a knowledge base and improves the quality of previously acquired knowledge. We discuss how AI can help discover knowledge from various data sources and recommend sustainable and personalized mobility services with explanations. The proposed knowledge-based AI framework is implemented using a synthetic dataset as a proof of concept. Combining different information sources to generate valuable knowledge is identified as one of the challenges in this study. Finally, explanations of the proposed decisions provide a criterion for evaluating and understanding the proposed knowledge-based AI framework. © 2023 by the authors.

Knowledge graphs have proven themselves as a robust tool in clinical applications to aid patient care and help identify treatments for new diseases. They have impacted many information retrieval systems in healthcare. In this study, we construct a disease knowledge graph using Neo4j (a knowledge graph tool) for a disease database to answer complex questions that are time-consuming and labour-intensive to be answered in the previous system. We demonstrate that new information can be inferred in a knowledge graph based on existing semantic relationships between the medical concepts and the ability to perform reasoning in the knowledge graph.

Mobility as a Service (MaaS) is a relatively new domain where new types of knowledge systems have recently emerged. It combines various modes of transportation and different kinds of data to present personalized services to travellers based on transport needs. A knowledge-based framework based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) is proposed in this paper to integrate, analyze, and process different types of mobility data. The framework includes a knowledge acquisition process to extract and structure data from various sources, including mobility experts and add new information to a knowledge base. The role of AI in this framework is to aid in automatically discovering knowledge from various data sets and recommend efficient and personalized mobility services with explanations. A scenario is also presented to demonstrate the interaction of the proposed framework’s modules.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) provides the opportunity to analyze complex transportation domains from various perspectives. Sustainability is one of the important transportation factors vital for a robust, fair, and efficient living environment and the livability of a city. This article leverages different feature engineering techniques on the New York City mobility dataset to identify the significant sustainability factors and employ the k-means clustering technique to cluster the commuters based on their transportation modes and demographics. Cluster analysis is performed based on the specified features and sustainable mode of transportation. Our cluster analysis of commuters on the New York City dataset shows that demographic information such as gender or race does not influence the sustainable mode of transportation, while the "start location"of travellers and their car access are influencing factors on sustainability. © 2022 IEEE.

In recent years, knowledge graphs (KGs) have been widely applied in various domains for different purposes. The semantic model of KGs can represent knowledge through a hierarchical structure based on classes of entities, their properties, and their relationships. The construction of large KGs can enable the integration of heterogeneous information sources and help Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems be more explainable and interpretable. This systematic review examines a selection of recent publications to understand how KGs are currently being used in eXplainable AI systems. To achieve this goal, we design a framework and divide the use of KGs into four categories: extracting features, extracting relationships, constructing KGs, and KG reasoning. We also identify where KGs are mostly used in eXplainable AI systems (pre-model, in-model, and post-model) according to the aforementioned categories. Based on our analysis, KGs have been mainly used in pre-model XAI for feature and relation extraction. They were also utilised for inference and reasoning in post-model XAI. We found several studies that leveraged KGs to explain the XAI models in the healthcare domain. © The Author(s) 2022.

The decisions derived from AI-based clinical decision support systems should be explainable and transparent so that the healthcare professionals can understand the rationale behind the predictions. To improve the explanations, knowledge graphs are a well-suited choice to be integrated into eXplainable AI. In this paper, we introduce a knowledge graph-based explainable framework for AI-based clinical decision support systems to increase their level of explainability.
