Lastly, for the first time, BlackboxNLP included a shared interpretation mission. One paper submitted to this mission has a demo presentation, of the interpretability library diagnnose, and is included as the last paper in these proceedings (submission number 70). BlackboxNLP would not have been possible without the dedication of its program committee. We would like to thank them for their invaluable effort in providing timely and high-quality reviews on a short notice. We are also grateful to our invited speakers for contributing to our program.
