Abstract
By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-New research on Artificial Intelligenc e is the subject of a report. According to news reporting out of Genoa, Italy, b y NewsRx editors, research stated, "Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is becoming a disruptive trend in healthcare, allowing for transparency and interp retability of autonomous decision-making. In this study, we present an innovativ e application of a rule-based classification model to identify the main causes o f chronic cough-related quality of life (QoL) impairment in a cohort of asthmati c patients." Funders for this research include Universita degli Studi di Genova, Ministero de ll'Istruzione, dell'Universita e della Ricerca. Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research, "The proposed approach first involves the design of a suitable symptoms questionnaire and the subsequen t analyses via XAI. Specifically, feature ranking, derived from statistically va lidated decision rules, helped in automatically identifying the main factors inf luencing an impaired QoL: pharynx/larynx and upper airways when asthma is under control, and asthma itself and digestive trait when asthma is not controlled. Mo reover, the obtained if-then rules identified specific thresholds on the symptom s associated to the impaired QoL."
