BlockCIR

BlockCIR is a groupwise extension of ExCIR that evaluates sets of correlated features as a single entity to prevent double-counting.

robust centering

Robust centering involves subtracting a robust estimate, such as the median or mid-mean, from features and outputs to enhance stability in feature attribution.

ExCIR

ExCIR is a correlation-aware attribution score that quantifies the impact of feature co-movement on model outputs while reducing computational costs.

Synthetic Control Arms

Control groups in clinical trials that are generated from synthetic data rather than derived from real patient populations, used to improve trial efficiency and reduce costs.

Censoring

A statistical phenomenon where the value of an observation is only partially known, often occurring in survival analysis when subjects drop out or are lost to follow-up.

Lipschitz Function

A function is Lipschitz if there exists a constant such that the absolute difference between the function values is bounded by this constant times the distance between the inputs.
