Explainable AI for Healthcare: From Black Box to Interpretable Models

As artificial intelligence penetrates deeper into work and personal life, it raises questions about trust and transparency. These questions are of greater consequence in healthcare where decisions are literally a matter of life and death. In this paper, we reflect on recent investigations about the interpretability and explainability of artificial intelligence methods and discuss their impact on medicine and healthcare.
