Chaofan Chen

Dr. Chen is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at the University of Maine. His research involves the design of interpretable machine learning models that can be understood (“interpreted”) by human beings. In particular, Dr. Chen is interested in developing new techniques to enhance the interpretability and transparency of machine learning models, especially deep learning models, and in applying such techniques to healthcare, finance, and other application domains, where high-stakes decisions are made and interpretability is key for whether one can trust the predictions made by machine learning models.
