Abstract
Healthcare informatics is an interdisciplinary area where computer science, data science, cognitive science, informatics principles, and information technology meet to address problems and support healthcare, medicine, public health, and/or everyday wellness. In many healthcare and medical applications, it is helpful to have models that can learn from historical healthcare data or instances to make predictions on future instances. For human to trust these models or to perceive these models to be trustworthy, it is equally important to build a trustworthy artificial intelligence (AI) solution. Hence, in this paper, towards trustworthy AI in healthcare, we present an explainable AI (XAI) solution that makes accurate predictions and explains the predictions. Evaluation results on real-life datasets demonstrates the effectiveness of our XAI solution towards trustworthy AI in healthcare.
