Using this as a case study in Computational Social Science, our goal is, first, to highlight the importance of making computational tools and methods transparent to social scientists. Secondly, we suggest an approach that accomplishes this using methods and principles from Interactive Machine Learning and the Algorithmic Experience framework.enAlgorithmic ExperienceAlgorithmic TransparencyComputational Social ScienceVisualizationInteractive Machine LearningText/Conference Paper10.1145/3340764.3345371
