The rapid growth of artificial intelligence (AI) has led to increased interest in automated machine learning (AutoML) and explainable AI (XAI). As AI systems become more complex, the ability to automate machine learning processes while ensuring transparency and interpretability is crucial for industrial and healthcare applications. This Special Issue explores cutting-edge research in AutoML frameworks, the role of XAI in making AI models more interpretable, and the integration of exploratory data analysis (EDA) with explainability techniques.
This Special Issue invites high-quality research contributions that address the challenges of automated AI model selection, feature engineering, and hyperparameter tuning in real-world applications. Additionally, we encourage research on best practices for Python and R in industrial and healthcare settings, enabling AI practitioners to streamline workflows and enhance reproducibility. Studies on AI-driven decision-making, industry-specific applications of XAI, and methodologies for transforming beginners into expert data scientists are also welcome.
