Because users typically seek targeted answers to specific questions rather than static artifacts, we present an LLM-based interactive interface that provides natural language access to global explanations for black-box image classifiers. The system's core LLM acts as a mediator, translating natural language questions into structured SQL queries over local explanation data. This enables flexible aggregation without exposing users to low-level representations. For each query, the interface outputs statistics-augmented natural language responses, supporting local explanations, and intent-aligned visualizations. We evaluate the system on intent interpretation, query mapping accuracy, generalization to novel queries and datasets, and robustness to linguistic errors. Our results demonstrate that LLM-mediated querying substantially improves the accessibility and usability of global explanations for human-centered XAI.", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/glare-a-natural-language-interface-for-querying-global-explanations", "canonical_source": "https://arxiv.org/abs/2606.19735", "published_at": "2026-06-19 04:00:00+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-06-19 04:04:10.493681+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "large-language-models", "computer-vision", "natural-language-processing", "ai-products"], "entities": ["GLARE", "arXiv"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/glare-a-natural-language-interface-for-querying-global-explanations", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/glare-a-natural-language-interface-for-querying-global-explanations.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/glare-a-natural-language-interface-for-querying-global-explanations.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/glare-a-natural-language-interface-for-querying-global-explanations.jsonld"}}
