Explainable AI (XAI) and Model Interpretability
Understanding Explainable AI (XAI) is pivotal as AI models grow in complexity, ensuring decisions are transparent, trustworthy, and verifiable. The chapter emphasizes the significance of model interpretability, explores various methods such as LIME and SHAP, and highlights the ethical and regulatory implications in fields like finance and healthcare. The interplay between model accuracy and interpretability is critical for responsible AI deployment.

Key Concepts
- -- Explainable AI (XAI)
- Methods that clarify how AI models make decisions to enhance transparency, accountability, and trust.
- -- Global Interpretability
- Understanding model behavior across all data inputs, often realized through feature importance rankings.
- -- Local Interpretability
- Explaining a model's specific prediction for a given input.
- -- ModelAgnostic Tools
- Techniques like SHAP and LIME that can interpret any model without dependence on its internal structure.
- -- Intrinsic Interpretability
- Models that are inherently interpretable, such as linear regression and decision trees.
- -- PostHoc Explanation
- Techniques applied after training a model to explain its predictions, examples include LIME and SHAP.
- -- Ethics of AI
- Moral principles guiding the deployment of AI technology, focusing on fairness, accountability, and transparency.
