    Abstract

    Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is a new paradigm of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that is giving different AI/ Machine Learning (ML) models a boost to penetrate sectors where people are thinking about adopting AI. This work focuses on the adoption of XAI in the health sector. It portrays that careful integration of XAI in both cloud and edge could change the whole healthcare industry and make humans more aware of their present health conditions, which is the need of the hour. To demonstrate the same, we have done an experiment based on the prediction of a particular medical condition called "cardiac arrest"in a specific subject group (patients who are 70 years old). Here, based on the explanation provided by the XAI model (e.g., SHAP, LIME) at Cloud and Edge, our system can predict the chances of a "cardiac arrest"for the subject with a valid explanation. This type of model will be the next big upgrade in the healthcare industry in terms of automation and a self-explanatory system that works as a personal health assistant for individuals.
