Abstract: This paper proposes a human-in-the-loop framework that integrates machine learning models with semantic technologies to aid decision making in the domain of steelmaking. To achieve this, we convert a random forest (RF) into rules in a Semantic Web Rule Language (SWRL) format and represent real-world data as a knowledge graph in a Resource Description Framework (RDF) format, capturing the meta-data as part of the model. A rule engine is deployed that applies logical inference on the knowledge graph, resulting in a semantically enriched classification. This new classification is combined with external domain-expert knowledge to provide improved, knowledge-guided assistance for the human-in-the-loop system. A case study in the steel manufacturing domain is introduced, where this application is used for real-world predictive analytic purposes.
