Researchers have developed multimodal Deep Transformation Models (DTMs) that combine statistical methods and neural networks to predict functional independence three months after stroke. These models achieve strong predictive performance, with an AUC of 0.81, while also offering interpretability through adapted explainability methods like Grad-CAM and Occlusion. The study utilized diffusion-weighted imaging and clinical data from 407 patients, identifying functional independence before stroke and stroke severity as key predictors. The explainability maps highlighted specific brain regions, offering insights into stroke pathophysiology and potential areas for further research. AI
