  1. 16. Explainable Machine Learning in Cardiovascular Diagnostics

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Alexander Gutell; Ludvig Skare; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The major challenges in implementing machine learning models in medical applications stemfrom ethical and accountability concerns, which arise from the lack of insight and understandingof the models' inner workings and reasoning. This opaqueness has resulted in the emergenceof a new subfield of machine learning called Explainability, which aims to develop and deploymethods to gain insight into how input data is weighted and propagated through a machinelearning algorithm.
