An international group of scientists is demanding scientific journals demand more transparency from researchers in computer-related areas when accepting their reports for publication.
They also want computational researchers to include information about their code, models and computational environments in published reports.
Their call, published in Nature Magazine in October, was in response to the results of research conducted by Google Health that was published in Nature last January.
The research claimed an artificial intelligence system was faster and more accurate at screening for breast cancer than human radiologists.
Google funded the study, which was led by Google Scholar Scott McKinney and other Google employees.
