Sumario:[EN] Internet of Things (IoT) widely use analysis of data with artificial intelligence (AI) techniques in order to learn from user actions, support decisions, track relevant aspects of the user, and notify certain events when appropriate. However, most AI techniques are based on mathematical models that are difficult to understand by the general public, so most people use AI-based technology as a black box that they eventually start to trust based on their personal experience. This article proposes to go a step forward in the use of AI in IoT, and proposes a novel approach within the Human-centric AI field for generating explanations about the knowledge learned by a neural network (in particular a multilayer perceptron) from IoT environments. More concretely, this work proposes two techniques based on the analysis of artificial neuron weights, and another technique aimed at explaining each estimation based on the analysis of training cases. This approach has been illustrated in the context of a smart IoT kitchen that detects the user depression based on the food used for each meal, using a simulator for this purpose. The results revealed that most auto-generated explanations made sense in this context (i.e. 97.0%), and the execution times were low (i.e. 1.5 ms or lower) even considering the common configurations varying independently the number of neurons per hidden layer (up to 20), the number of hidden layers (up to 20) and the number of training cases (up to 4,000).
