xplainfi: Feature Importance and Statistical Inference for Machine Learning in R

Lukas Burk, Fiona Katharina Ewald, Giuseppe Casalicchio +2

We introduce xplainfi, an R package built on top of the mlr3 ecosystem for global, loss-based feature importance methods for machine learning models. Various feature importance met…

Reduction Techniques for Survival Analysis

Johannes Piller, Léa Orsini, Simon Wiegrebe +6

In this work, we discuss what we refer to as reduction techniques for survival analysis, that is, techniques that "reduce" a survival task to a more common regression or classifica…

When Are Scoring Rules Proper? Bridging Theory and Practice in Survival Model Evaluation

John Zobolas, Raphael Sonabend, Riccardo De Bin +4

Proper scoring rules encourage probabilistic predictions that match the true underlying distribution and are central to model evaluation, with increasing relevance in automated wor…
