Deep learning models have revolutionized numerous fields, yet their decision-making processes often remain opaque, earning them the characterization of "black-box" models due to their lack of transparency and comprehensibility. This opacity presents significant challenges to understanding the rationale behind their decisions, thereby impeding their interpretability, explainability, and reliability. This review examines 718 studies published between 2015 and 2024 in high-impact journals indexed in SCI, SCI-E, SSCI, and ESCI, providing a crucial reference for researchers investigating methodologies and techniques in related domains. In this exploration, we evaluate a wide array of interpretability and explainability (XAI) strategies, including visual and feature-based explanations, local approach-based techniques, and Bayesian methods. These strategies are assessed for their effectiveness and applicability using a comprehensive set of evaluation metrics. Moving beyond traditional analyses, we propose a novel taxonomy of XAI methods, addressing gaps in the literature and offering a structured classification that elucidates the roles and interactions of these methods. Moreover, we explore the intricate relationship between interpretability and explainability, examining potential conflicts and highlighting the necessity for interpretability in practical applications. Through detailed comparative analysis, we underscore the strengths and limitations of various XAI methods across different data types, ensuring a thorough understanding of their practical performance and real-world utility. The review also examines model robustness against adversarial attacks, emphasizing the critical importance of transparency, reliability, and ethical considerations in model development. A significant emphasis is placed on identifying and mitigating biases in deep learning systems, providing insights into future research directions that aim to enhance fairness and reduce bias.

Preservation of the crops depends on early and accurate detection of pests on crops as they cause several diseases decreasing crop production and quality. Several deep-learning techniques have been applied to overcome the issue of pest detection on crops. We have developed the YOLOCSP-PEST model for Pest localization and classification. With the Cross Stage Partial Network (CSPNET) backbone, the proposed model is a modified version of You Only Look Once Version 7 (YOLOv7) that is intended primarily for pest localization and classification. Our proposed model gives exceptionally good results under conditions that are very challenging for any other comparable models especially conditions where we have issues with the luminance and the orientation of the images. It helps farmers working out on their crops in distant areas to determine any infestation quickly and accurately on their crops which helps in the quality and quantity of the production yield. The model has been trained and tested on 2 datasets namely the IP102 data set and a local crop data set on both of which it has shown exceptional results. It gave us a mean average precision (mAP) of 88.40% along with a precision of 85.55% and a recall of 84.25% on the IP102 dataset meanwhile giving a mAP of 97.18% on the local data set along with a recall of 94.88% and a precision of 97.50%. These findings demonstrate that the proposed model is very effective in detecting real-life scenarios and can help in the production of crops improving the yield quality and quantity at the same time.

Ear diseases are defined as pathological conditions that indicate dysfunction or abnormal function of the ear organ, which is part of the auditory system of living organisms that regulates hearing and balance functions. These diseases usually manifest as conditions that affect the internal components of the ear structure and can manifest themselves with symptoms such as hearing loss, ear pain, balance problems, and fluid accumulation in the ear. The accuracy of the diagnosis depends on expert knowledge and subjective opinion. This method is prone to human error. This study presents a novel computer-aided diagnosis system for otoscope images of ear diseases, utilizing a vision transformer-based feature extractor combined with machine learning classifiers to provide accurate second opinions for ENT specialists. For this purpose, a new model based on state-of-the-art vision transformer feature extractor and machine learning models is proposed. In the experimental study, the dataset, comprising 880 eardrum images categorized into four classes (CSOM, earwax, myringosclerosis, and normal), was split into training (70%), validation (10%), and testing (20%) subsets. Each image was preprocessed to 420 × 380 pixels to fit the input dimensions of the models. The vision transformer architecture was utilized for feature extraction, followed by classification using various machine learning algorithms including kNN, SVM, and random forest. As a result, the model using vision transformer feature extractor and k-nearest neighbors (kNN) algorithm achieved 99.00% accuracy. In this study, a deep learning-based and computer-aided diagnosis system, in other words, a computational model, was developed instead of the current human error-prone disease diagnosis method used by ear nose throat (ENT) specialists. The main purpose of the deep learning-based decision support system is to support the diagnosis process where expert knowledge is difficult to access and to provide an alternative opi
