Scientific Inference With Interpretable Machine Learning: Analyzing Models to Learn About Real-World Phenomena

Timo Freiesleben, Gunnar König, Christoph Molnar +1

To learn about real world phenomena, scientists have traditionally used models with clearly interpretable elements. However, modern machine learning (ML) models, while powerful pre…
