🧠Researchers identify a critical gap between safety standards for autonomous driving and explainable AI (XAI) methods: current popular XAI techniques like SHAP produce outputs that don't match the evidence types required by ISO and safety standards. The study derives 19 evidentiary criteria across 7 lifecycle stages and determines that causal XAI methods are structurally necessary for hazard identification and incident investigation, while correlational methods suffice elsewhere.
