Explainable AI in Healthcare

Transparency is of utmost importance when AI is applied to high stake decision problems where additional information on the underlying process beyond the output of the model may be required. Taking the automation of loan attribution as an example, a client that has a loan denied will surely want to know why did that happen […]

Embedding Domain Knowledge for Estimating Customer Lifetime Value

As part of the rise of Deep Neural Networks in the ML community, we have observed an increasing fit-predict approach, where AI practitioners don’t take the time to think about the domain knowledge that is already available and how to embed that knowledge in the models. In this blogpost, we will cover how we created […]

Appendix: Embedding Domain Knowledge for CLV Estimation

This is an appendix to the blog post Embedding Domain Knowledge for Estimating Customer Lifetime Value. We will describe some alternatives we considered for solving the proposed problem, but did not end up being implemented. First, let’s assume we have a pre-trained model for estimating the probability of the target and . Estimating Lifetime Value using […]

Objectively Estimating Data Quality

In Artificial Intelligence, it is important to measure the quality of the data we are trying to use. For instance, if we want to classify a cervix image according to the degree of cancer, how do we know if that image follows the acquisition protocol and can be used for diagnosing the patient [1] so […]
