Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women. Thankfully, early detection and treatment improvements helped decrease the number of deaths. Data Mining techniques have always assisted BC tasks whether it is screening, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, monitoring, and/or management. Nowadays, the use of Data Mining is witnessing a new era. In fact, the main objective is no longer to replace humans but to enhance their capabilities, which is why Artificial Intelligence is now referred to as Intelligence Augmentation. In this context, interpretability is used to help domain experts learn new patterns and machine learning experts debug their models. This paper aims to investigate three black-boxes interpretation techniques: Feature Importance, Partial Dependence Plot, and LIME when applied to two types of feed-forward Artificial Neural Networks: Multilayer perceptrons, and Radial Basis Function Network, trained on the Wisconsin Original dataset for breast cancer diagnosis. Results showed that local LIME explanations were instance-level interpretations that came in line with the global interpretations of the other two techniques. Global/local interpretability techniques can thus be combined to define the trustworthiness of a black-box model. |
