Terms from Artificial Intelligence: humans at the heart of algorithms

The glossary is being gradually proof checked, but currently has many typos and misspellings.

A decision support system is any piece of software intended to help humans make decisions. This may be a simple visualisation or dashboard, or may include AI or machine learning, often in combination with forms of visualisation or explanation. The term visual analytics may be used for systems that combine sophisticated visualisation and AI with rich user interaction.
