Explainable AI in Education: Techniques and Qualitative Assessment by Sachini Gunasekara, Mirka Saarela

“…The methodology involved evaluating the DT, an intrinsically explainable model, against the more complex ANN, which requires post hoc explainability techniques. The results show that, although the feature-based and structured decision-making process of the DT facilitates natural interpretability, it struggles to model complex data relationships, often leading to misclassification. …”

Phase separation of the plasma membrane in human red blood cells as a potential tool for diagnosis and progression monitoring of type 1 diabetes mellitus. by Giuseppe Maulucci, Ermanno Cordelli, Alessandro Rizzi, Francesca De Leva, Massimiliano Papi, Gabriele Ciasca, Daniela Samengo, Giovambattista Pani, Dario Pitocco, Paolo Soda, Giovanni Ghirlanda, Giulio Iannello, Marco De Spirito

“…On these grounds, the measurement of RBC membrane fluidity alterations can furnish a more sensitive index in T1DM diagnosis and disease progression than Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), which reflects only the information related to glycosylation processes. Here, through a functional two-photon microscopy approach we retrieved fluidity maps at submicrometric scale in RBC of T1DM patients with and without complications, detecting an altered membrane equilibrium. …”

PolyReg: Autoregressive Building Outline Regularization via Masked Attention Sequence Generation by Longfei Cui, Chao Li, Xin Chen, Xiao Wang, Haizhong Qian

“…Through a cleverly designed self-attention mask matrix, it achieves an autoregressive output of regularized building outline coordinates, eliminating the need for cumbersome post-processing steps. Experimental results show that on the Inria Aerial Image Labeling Dataset, compared with traditional methods and existing deep learning methods, the proposed method demonstrates significant advantages in metrics such as IoU, C-IoU, and Hausdorff distance. …”
