The purpose of XAI-Healthcare 2022 event is to provide a place for intensive discussion on all aspects of eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) in the medical and healthcare field. This should result in cross-fertilization among research on Machine Learning, Decision Support Systems, Natural Language, Human-Computer Interaction, and Healthcare sciences. This meeting will also provide attendees with an opportunity to learn more on the progress of XAI in healthcare and to share their own perspectives. The panel discussion will provide participants with the insights on current developments and challenges from the researchers working in this fast-developing field.

Scope

We expect the contributions received to describe explanation methods, AI techniques and a targeted healthcare problem. Some examples are provided below for guidance, but the list of topics is not limited to these specific methods, techniques and problems.

Explanation Approaches:
  • Model agnostic methods
  • Feature analysis
  • Visualization approaches
  • Example-based Explat.
  • Fairness, accountability and trust
  • Evaluating XAI
  • Fairness and bias auditing
  • Human-AI interaction
  • Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) for XAI
  • Natural Language Processing (NLP) Explainability
AI techniques:
  • Blackbox ML approaches: DL, random forest, etc.
  • Interpretable ML models: Rules, Trees, etc.
  • Statistical methods
  • Case-based reasoning
Target healthcare problems:
  • Infection challenges (COVID, Antibiotic Resistance, etc.)
  • Trustworthy AI
  • Chronic diseases
  • Ageing & home care

Important Dates

  • March 10, 2022 Paper submission (extended deadline)
  • March 15, 2022 Acceptance
  • March 30, 2022 Final mansucript

Submissions

Papers should be submitted to the XAI-Healthcare Easy Chair Website at SUBMIT LINK . Papers should be formatted according to IEEE Proceedings Format ( FORMAT LINK).

The workshop features regular papers in a single category: short papers (up to 6 pages) describing either original research projects or work-in-progress.

All accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings which will be published in IEEE ICHI 2022 proceedings book (IEEE Acess).

Special Issue Journal

Best papers presented will be invited to extend their manuscript for possible publication in the Special Issue on XAI at an international scientific journal.
