	abstract =	{It is becoming increasingly apparent that without some
	form of explanation capability, the full potential of trained
	Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) may not be realised. This survey
	gives an overview of techniques developed to redress this situation.
	Specifically the survey focuses on mechanisms, procedures, and
	algorithms designed to insert knowledge into ANNs (knowledge
	initialisation), extract rules from trained ANNs (rule extraction), and
	utilise ANNs to refine existing rule bases (rule refinement). The
	survey also introduces a new taxonomy for classifying the various
	techniques, discusses their modus operandi, and delineates criteria for
	evaluating their efficacy.},
