Counterfactual Explanations for Gallstone Status Prediction Using CRP and Vitamin D

Five counterfactual explanations generated by a CB classifier for a single medical instance. The data demonstrates how variations in C-reactive protein (CRP) and Vitamin D levels influence the prediction of gallstone status.
