CONFIDERAI: CONFormal Interpretable-by-Design score function for Explainable and Reliable Artificial Intelligence

The concept of trustworthiness has been declined in different ways in the field of artificial intelligence, but all its definitions agree on two main pillars: explainability and conformity. In this extended abstract, our aim is to give an idea on how to merge these concepts, by defining a new framework for conformal rule-based predictions. In particular, we introduce a new score function for rule-based models, that leverages on rule relevance and geometrical position of points from rule classification boundaries.
