Towards Interpretable Machine Learning With Applications To Clinical Decision Support, Zhicheng Cui

McKelvey School of Engineering Theses & Dissertations

Machine learning models have achieved impressive predictive performance in various applications such as image classification and object recognition. However, understanding how machine learning models make decisions is essential when deploying those models in critical areas such as clinical prediction and market analysis, where prediction accuracy is not the only concern. For example, in the clinical prediction of ICU transfers, in addition to accurate predictions, doctors need to know the contributing factors that triggered the alert, which factors can be quickly altered to prevent the ICU transfer. While interpretable machine learning has been extensively studied for years, challenges remain as among …
