Explainable AI Introduction to Explainable AI (XAI) Over the past couple of years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has progressed very rapidly in a wide range of sectors, from healthcare to finance, and from education to entertainment. As AI technologies continue to grow, their data-driven decision-making becomes increasingly stronger. However, the complexity of such algorithms, particularly those derived from deep learning models, has the tendency to veil the decision-making process from both users and developers. This transparency of AI systems has created an immediate need for so-called "Explainable AI" (XAI). Source: Google Images What is Explainable AI? Explainable AI, or XAI, refers to a branch of artificial intelligence that seeks to promote the transparency, interpretability, and explainability of the behavior of AI systems to human stakeholders. While AI models such as deep neural networks and ensemble methods can make extremely accurate predictions, their "black b...
