Introduction. Artificial intelligence (AI) models have been employed to automate decision-making, from commerce to more critical fields directly affecting human lives, including healthcare. Although the vast majority of these proposed AI systems are considered black box models that lack explainability, there is an increasing trend of attempting to create medical explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) systems using approaches such as attention mechanisms and surrogate models. An AI system is said to be explainable if humans can tell how the system reached its decision. Various XAI-driven healthcare approaches and their performances in the current study are discussed. The toolkits used in local and global post hoc explainability and the multiple techniques for explainability pertaining the Rational, Data, and Performance explainability are discussed in the current study. Methods. The explainability of the artificial intelligence model in the healthcare domain is implemented through the Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanations and Shapley Additive Explanations for better comprehensibility of the internal working mechanism of the original AI models and the correlation among the feature set that influences decision of the model. Results. The current state-of-the-art XAI-based and future technologies through XAI are reported on research findings in various implementation aspects, including research challenges and limitations of existing models. The role of XAI in the healthcare domain ranging from the earlier prediction of future illness to the disease’s smart diagnosis is discussed. The metrics considered in evaluating the model’s explainability are presented, along with various explainability tools. Three case studies about the role of XAI in the healthcare domain with their performances are incorporated for better comprehensibility. Conclusion. The future perspective of XAI in healthcare will assist in obtaining research insight in the healthcare domain.

The results of pneumatic displacement of submacular hemorrhage using perfluoropropane gas are encouraging, thus questioning the role of tPA in the management of such cases.

Rapid growth in technology and information lead the human to witness the improved growth in velocity, volume of data, and variety. The data in the business organizations demonstrate the development of big data applications. Because of the improving demand of applications, analysis of sophisticated streaming big data tends to become a significant area in data mining. One of the significant aspects of the research is employing deep learning approaches for effective extraction of complex data representations. Accordingly, this survey provides the detailed review of big data classification methodologies, like deep learning based techniques, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) based techniques, K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) based techniques, Neural Network (NN) based techniques, fuzzy based techniques, and Support vector based techniques, and so on. Moreover, a detailed study is made by concerning the parameters, like evaluation metrics, implementation tool, employed framework, datasets utilized, adopted classification methods, and accuracy range obtained by various techniques. Eventually, the research gaps and issues of various big data classification schemes are presented.

Purpose Telecommunication has a decisive role in the development of technology in the current era. The number of mobile users with multiple SIM cards is increasing every second. Hence, telecommunication is a significant area in which big data technologies are needed. Competition among the telecommunication companies is high due to customer churn. Customer retention in telecom companies is one of the major problems. The paper aims to discuss this issue. Design/methodology/approach The authors recommend an Intersection-Randomized Algorithm (IRA) using MapReduce functions to avoid data duplication in the mobile user call data of telecommunication service providers. The authors use the agent-based model (ABM) to predict the complex mobile user behaviour to prevent customer churn with a particular telecommunication service provider. Findings The agent-based model increases the prediction accuracy due to the dynamic nature of agents. ABM suggests rules based on mobile user variable features using multiple agents. Research limitations/implications The authors have not considered the microscopic behaviour of the customer churn based on complex user behaviour. Practical implications This paper shows the effectiveness of the IRA along with the agent-based model to predict the mobile user churn behaviour. The advantage of this proposed model is as follows: the user churn prediction system is straightforward, cost-effective, flexible and distributed with good business profit. Originality/value This paper shows the customer churn prediction of complex human behaviour in an effective and flexible manner in a distributed environment using Intersection-Randomized MapReduce Algorithm using agent-based model.
