摘要: Artificial neural networks is one of the most commonly used machine learning algorithms in medical applications. However, they are still not practice clinics partly due to their lack explanatory capacity. We compare two case-based explanation methods trained physicians on analysis electrocardiogram (ECG) data from patients with a suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The median overlaps top 5 selected features between physicians, and given physician method, were initially low. Using correlation overlap increased values typically range 3-4. In conclusion, both our generate explanations similar those expert problem diagnosing ACS ECG data.
