Abstract
The interest in Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) research area has dramatically grown during the last few years. The main reason is the need of having systems that beyond being effective are also able to describe how a certain outcome has been reached and to present it in a comprehensive manner with respect to the target users. The Digital Health domain is a pioneering scenario where XAI strategies have been designed and implemented. In this talk, I would go through the milestones of this paradigm and I will discuss the role of semantic technologies. Then, I will present how such strategies have been applied to the Digital Health domain, and which are the challenges that have to be tackled in the near future.
