Course Overview

Explainable AI is a set of tools and frameworks that helps you understand and interpret the internal logic behind the predictions made by a deep learning network. With this, you can generate insights into the behavior and working of the model to mitigate issues around it in the development phase. In this course, you will be introduced to popular Explainable AI algorithms such as smooth gradient, integrated gradient, LIME, class activation maps, counterfactual explanations, feature attributions, etc., for i...Show More
