Carloni, G., Berti, A., & Colantonio, S. (2024). The role of causality in explainable artificial intelligence. arXiv preprint arXiv:2309.09901.
Causality and eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) have developed as separate fields in computer science, even though the underlying concepts of causation and explanation share common ancient roots. This is further enforced by the lack of review...
