Quantifying Explainable AI-introduced signal noise on ECG data with Spectral Entropy

arXiv:2606.24974v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Explainability techniques are used to assess the output of various deep learning models. This is especially true in healthcare, where models need to be trusted and decisions justified. Explainability (XAI) tools use heuristics which often add signal noise to the explanation "core". It is not always obvious what is signal from the model and what is noise from the XAI. We propose the use of spectral entropy as a measure of noise in XAI output. We dem...
