农药风险评估中的等效性检验：设计、分析与解释AI 解读

Harmful pesticide effects exceeding specific protection goals (SPG) may go undetected in underpowered experimental designs. Regulatory honeybee field studies have consistently failed to reach the statistical power required under European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) guidance, which may have caused approval of high-risk substances. Therefore, EFSA advised a shift from testing the null hypothesis of 'no effect' to equivalence testing. Under this approach, a pesticide is…

预测模型能否用于因果推断？AI 解读

Supervised machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) algorithms excel at predictive tasks, but it is commonly assumed that they often do so by exploiting non-causal correlations, which may limit both interpretability and generalizability. Here, we show that this trade-off between explanation and prediction is not as deep and fundamental as expected. Whereas ML and DL algorithms will indeed tend to use non-causal features for prediction when fed indiscriminately with all…
