Σύνοψη	Explainable LightGBM combines Microsoft's LightGBM gradient boosting framework with SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) to deliver both high predictive performance and rigorous, theoretically grounded feature-level explanations. It is widely adopted in applied research where predictive accuracy and interpretability are simultaneously required.	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.	Random Forest is an ensemble learning method, introduced by Leo Breiman in 2001, that grows many decision trees on bootstrap samples of the data and combines their votes to produce strong classification and regression. By pooling many slightly different trees, it produces more accurate and more stable predictions than any single tree.
