An explainable Machine Learning model for Large-Scale Travelling Ionospheric Disturbances forecasting by Ventriglia Vincenzo, Guerra Marco, Cesaroni Claudio, Spogli Luca, Altadill David, Segarra Antoni, Galkin Ivan, Barta Veronika, Verhulst Tobias G.W., de Paula Víctor, Navas-Portella Víctor, Berényi Kitti A., Belehaki Anna

“…It is crucial to make the model predictions explainable, so that the output contribution of each physical factor input is visualised through the game-theoretic SHapley Additive exPlanation (SHAP) formalism. The validation procedure consists of a global-level evaluation and interpretation step, firstly, followed by an event-level validation against independent detection methods, which highlights the model’s predictive robustness and suggests its potential for real-time space weather forecasting. …”
