Join our comprehensive course to embark on an instructive journey into the world of eXplainable AI (XAI). Throughout the course, participants will develop a solid foundational understanding of XAI, primarily emphasizing how XAI methodologies can expose latent
biases in datasets and reveal valuable insights.
The course starts with a broad overview of XAI, setting the stage for a deep dive into cutting-edge model-agnostic interpretation techniques. As the course progresses, we shift our focus to model-specific post-hoc interpretation methods. Through immersive training, participants will learn to interpret machine learning algorithms and unravel the intricacies of deep neural networks, such as convolutional neural networks (CNN) and transformers. They will also become skilled in applying these techniques to various data formats, encompassing tabular data, images, and 1D data.
In addition to theoretical insights, participants will engage in hands-on practical sessions to apply these techniques effectively.
Take advantage of this opportunity to enhance your expertise in XAI and acquire the skills needed to navigate the intricate landscape of AI interpretability. Enroll now and unlock the potential of XAI!
