Σύνοψη	An Explainable Decision Tree is a classification or regression tree deliberately grown to be shallow, readable, and auditable — producing a finite set of if-then rules that a human can verify without additional tools. It sits at the intersection of predictive modelling and Explainable AI (XAI), chosen when stakeholders must understand and trust every prediction the model makes.	A Decision Tree is an interpretable classification and regression method, formalised by Breiman, Friedman, Olshen and Stone in their 1984 CART framework, that partitions the data with hierarchical if-then rules. Each split sends observations down one branch or another until a prediction is read off the leaf.	XGBoost (Extreme Gradient Boosting) is a scalable tree-boosting algorithm introduced by Tianqi Chen and Carlos Guestrin in 2016. It builds a strong predictor by adding decision trees one at a time, each correcting the errors left by the trees before it, and is a powerful prediction method widely used in competitions.
