Explainable Feature Importance: Interpretable machine learning through game theoretic analysis of influence variables and interaction effects
Machine learning (ML) methods support the search for patterns in data and relationships between variables, e.g. in complex bio-medical systems. In this way, they can provide new insights and improve decisions in fields of action such as medical diagnostics. In addition to the quality of the models learned from the data, the trust of human experts ...

Technically Enabled Explaining of Speaker Traits
The speech signal is a rich source of information that conveys linguistic but also what is termed para- or extralinguistic content, revealing a speaker’s identity, gender, emotional or cognitive state, age, and health. These traits have been the subject of many investigations in phonetics, but due to the high complexity of the underlying ...
