[D] Have researchers given up on traditional machine learning methods?
- all domains requiring high interpretability absolutely ignore deep learning at all, and put all their research into traditional ML; see e.g. counterfactual examples, important interpretability methods in finance, or rule-based learning, important in medical or law applications

What would be my best approach given the data I have?
Next, this variable will be your target and you can use various supervised learning models to answer your question. Since interpretation is key, you can use something from here: https://github.com/csinva/imodels or do some black box models and use shab to understand which features contributed most.

UC Berkeley Researchers Introduce ‘imodels: A Python Package For Fitting Interpretable Machine Learning Models
Despite recent breakthroughs in the formulation and fitting of interpretable models, implementations are frequently challenging to locate, utilize, and compare. imodels solves this void by offering a single interface and implementation for a wide range of state-of-the-art interpretable modeling techniques, especially rule-based methods. imodels is basically a Python tool for predictive modeling that is simple, transparent, and accurate. It gives users a straightforward way to fit and use state-of-the-art interpretable models, all of which are compatible with scikit-learn (Pedregosa et al., 2011). These models can frequently replace black-box models while boosting interpretability and computing efficiency without compromising forecast accuracy. Continue Reading

[R] The Shapley Value in Machine Learning
Counter-factual and recourse-based explanations are alternative approach to model explanations. I used to work in a large financial institution, and we were researching whether counter-factual explanation methods would lead to better reason codes for adverse action notices.
What are some alternatives?
