Longitudinal Analysis of Oral Potentially Malignant Disorder Conversion to Malignancy
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objectives Oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) are local and systemic conditions that can result in oral malignancies. We have had an OPMD surveillance program for 25 years covering over 30% of our state's population. More recent electronic health record search techniques have allowed us to analyze over 1500 patients in over a 10‐year

Pixel Lens: A Granular Assessment of Saliency Explanations
Artificial Intelligence for Engineering, EarlyView.We propose a pipeline that detects shortcut‐dominated classifiers by comparing predictions on clean and shortcut‐perturbed images and checking dominance via a Shapley‐based ground‐truth explainer. The workflow quantifies the explanation quality of different explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) methods.
