Sub-Project 8(SungHyun Sim): Development of an XAI-based Survival Prediction and Clinical Decision-Support Tool for Thoracic Surgery Patients 

Key Research Activities

• Establishment of multi-center data harmonization and analytical datasets for high-risk thoracic surgery patients.
• Development and optimization of survival prediction models that ensure statistical clinical significance and reflect non-linear interactions.
• Development of XAI-based explanation modules (visualization of global risk factors, individual patient contributions, directionality, and supporting evidence).
• Implementation and utility validation of an XAI-based clinical decision support demonstration module (report and visualization system) for clinical review.
