This research explores methods for developing artificial intelligence (AI) systems that are understandable by humans. This is particularly important in fields like healthcare and finance, where AI is being used for critical decision-making. The research investigates techniques to improve the transparency and interpretability of deep learning models, examines how explainability methods impact trust and adoption of AI in clinical settings, and explores the trade-offs between model accuracy and interpretability.
Use the following paper outline and provide details and technical input with examples and referneces as much as possible: Explain each technical term used. Identify the techniques that can be used and technology that can be used for the paper.
