Course details
Model Interpretability: Understanding the limitations and biases of machine learning models in finance, and techniques to improve interpretability, such as feature importance, partial dependence plots, and SHAP values. •
Explainable Decision Making: Developing techniques to explain the decisions made by AI models in finance, including model-agnostic explanations, attention mechanisms, and model-based explanations. •
Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency (FAT) in AI: Ensuring that AI models in finance are fair, accountable, and transparent, and addressing issues such as bias, discrimination, and data privacy. •
Model-agnostic Explanations: Techniques for explaining the decisions made by AI models without requiring access to the model's internal workings, such as LIME, TreeExplainer, and Anchors. •
Attention Mechanisms: Using attention mechanisms to focus on specific input features when explaining the decisions made by AI models in finance, and their applications in natural language processing and computer vision. •
SHAP Values: Using SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) values to assign a value to each feature for a specific prediction, and their applications in model interpretability and explainability. •
Model-agnostic Feature Attribution: Techniques for attributing the importance of input features to the predictions made by AI models in finance, such as permutation feature importance and partial dependence plots. •
Explainable Regression: Developing techniques to explain the predictions made by regression models in finance, including SHAP values, LIME, and TreeExplainer. •
Natural Language Processing (NLP) for Explainability: Using NLP techniques to explain the decisions made by AI models in finance, including text classification, sentiment analysis, and topic modeling. •
Explainability in Time Series Analysis: Developing techniques to explain the predictions made by time series models in finance, including ARIMA, LSTM, and Prophet.
