Explainability in Practice: Estimating Electrification Rates from Mobile Phone Data in Senegal
Laura State, Hadrien Salat, Stefania Rubrichi +1
Explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) provides explanations for not interpretable machine learning (ML) models. While many technical approaches exist, there is a lack of valida…
The impact of electrification on rural attractiveness in Senegal

Hadrien Salat, Roberto Murcio, Keiji Yano +1
Multifractal analysis offers a number of advantages to measure spatial economic segregation and inequality, as it is free of categories and boundaries definition problems and is in…
