Reply to comment by aschroeder91 in [D] Have researchers given up on traditional machine learning methods? by fujidaiti

I remember sitting in on a talk from a large insurance company who did this a number of years back. They used DL for feature engineering, but used traditional ML for the predictive model itself. This had to do with satisfying some regulatory requirements around model interpretability.

the real innovation will be comfortably backpropagating through the hybrid model as a whole

Did they claim traditional ML explained the features engineered by the DL? If so, how did they explain the units of feature variables?
