Abstract

eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) aims to provide intelligible explanations to users. XAI algorithms such as SHAP, LIME and Scoped Rules compute feature importance for machine learning predictions. Although XAI has attracted much research attention, applying XAI techniques in healthcare to i...
