Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Trustworthy Decisions in Smart Applications
暫譯: 智慧應用程式中值得信賴決策的可解釋人工智慧

本書將讀者帶入可解釋人工智慧（Explainable Artificial Intelligence，XAI）領域，旨在讓 AI 模型更加透明且值得信賴。本書探討 XAI 如何在醫療、金融與工程等領域的各種創新應用中，提升人們對 AI 模型及其決策的信任與信心；在這些領域中，AI 可能對生活品質產生重大影響。

讀者將了解與 XAI 相關的新興趨勢，例如大型語言模型（large language models）、生成式 AI（generative AI）與自然語言處理（natural language processing）。這些技術正逐步改變 AI 研究與應用的整體面貌。本書以跨學科的觀點，檢視 XAI 的最新發展、所面臨的挑戰與潛在機會，並搭配清楚的範例及詳細說明，介紹其方法與技術。

本書也以均衡的觀點探討 XAI 的限制與取捨，並闡述未來在研究與實務方面的發展方向與機會。本書適合所有希望深入了解 XAI，並理解其如何提升對 AI 模型信任程度的讀者。
