This EEG Looks Like These EEGs: Interpretable Interictal Epileptiform Discharge Detection With ProtoEEG-kNN

Dennis Tang, Jon Donnelly, Alina Jade Barnett +8

The presence of interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) in electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings is a critical biomarker of epilepsy. Even trained neurologists find detecting IED…

Rashomon Sets for Prototypical-Part Networks: Editing Interpretable Models in Real-Time

Jon Donnelly, Zhicheng Guo, Alina Jade Barnett +3

Interpretability is critical for machine learning models in high-stakes settings because it allows users to verify the model's reasoning. In computer vision, prototypical part mode…

Amazing Things Come From Having Many Good Models

Cynthia Rudin, Chudi Zhong, Lesia Semenova +7

The Rashomon Effect, coined by Leo Breiman, describes the phenomenon that there exist many equally good predictive models for the same dataset. This phenomenon happens for many rea…
