A novel XAI framework for explainable AI-ECG using generative counterfactual XAI (GCX) by Jong-Hwan Jang, Yong-Yeon Jo, Sora Kang, Jeong Min Son, Hak Seung Lee, Joon-myoung Kwon, Min Sung Lee

“…Through a series of validation experiments, the framework demonstrates its ability to produce counterfactual ECGs that closely align with established clinical knowledge, including characteristic alterations associated with potassium imbalances and atrial fibrillation. By clearly visualizing how incremental modifications in ECG morphology and rhythm affect artificial intelligence-applied ECG (AI-ECG) predictions, this generative counterfactual method moves beyond static attribution maps and has the potential to increase clinicians’ trust in AI-ECG systems. …”

Crowd counting in domain generalization based on multi-scale attention and hierarchy level enhancement by Jiarui Zhou, Jianming Zhang, Yan Gui

“…Finally, the fusion of multi-scale features derived from different receptive fields is further enhanced through multi-scale hierarchy level feature fusion, thereby enabling the model to learn high-level semantic information and low-level multi-scale visual field feature information. This method enhances the model’s capacity to capture key feature information, even in highly differentiated datasets, thereby improving the model’s generalization ability on a single domain. …”
