At Enversion, our mission is to make healthcare more proactive through intelligent use of the vast amount of existing data. I direct and facilitate the efforts at Enversion to instill trust into our solutions. Trust obviously depends on the accuracy of decisions, but trust in an intelligence – artificial as well as human – is also instilled by the ability to explain a decision and justify the degree of certainty hereof, if challenged. Without a high level of trust, a solution will not be used in practice – a fact that is particularly true within the healthcare domain. Once a need has been established, some of the technical keywords involved in a solution are: Analytics and Machine Learning Deep Learning Explainable AI Relevance propagation Reasoning under uncertainty Responsible for advising, maturing and educating people in the full span from simple statistics and Machine Learning to fully trustworthy and explainable AI based on Deep Learning – both internally at Enversion, as well as externally via Enversion Grow and university relationships.
