In today's world, artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly becoming a part of our daily lives. For this integration to be successful, it's essential that AI systems can effectively interact with humans. This means making the AI system's behavior more understandable to users and allowing users to customize the system's behavior to match their preferences. However, there are significant challenges associated with achieving this goal.One major challenge is that modern AI systems, which have shown great success, often make decisions based on learned representations. These representations, often acquired through deep learning techniques, are typically inscrutable to the users inhibiting explainability and customizability of the system. Additionally, since each user may have unique preferences and expertise, the interaction process must be tailored to each individual.This thesis addresses these challenges that arise in human-AI interaction scenarios, especially in cases where the AI system is tasked with solving sequential decision-making problems. This is achieved by introducing a framework that uses a symbolic interface to facilitate communication between humans and AI agents. This shared vocabulary acts as a bridge, enabling the AI agent to provide explanations in terms that are easy for humans to understand and allowing users to express their preferences using this common language. To address the need for personalization, the framework provides mechanisms that allow users to expand this shared vocabulary, enabling them to express their unique preferences effectively. Moreover, the AI systems are designed to take into account the user's background knowledge when generating explanations tailored to their specific needs.
