Abstract

BACKGROUND: The use of machine learning is becoming increasingly popular in many disciplines, but there is still an implementation gap of machine learning models in clinical settings. Lack of trust in models is one of the issues that need to be addressed in an effort to close this gap. No models are perfect, and it is crucial to know in which use cases we can trust a model and for which cases it is less reliable.
