 e: Interpretation measures in Random Survival Forests (RSF) with longitudi
 nal predictors\nAbstract: \nIn many biomedical studies\, time-to-event ou
 tcomes must be predicted from diverse predictors\, including numerical\, c
 ategorical\, and longitudinal variables measured repeatedly over time. Ran
 dom Survival Forests (RSF) are increasingly used in this setting because t
 hey provide strong predictive performance\, handle complex relationships\,
  and do not rely on assumptions such as proportional hazards ratio. Howeve
 r\, their internal mechanisms remain difficult to interpret\, which limits
  their use in clinical contexts where interpretability is essential. Exist
 ing interpretability tools such as variable importance\, partial dependenc
 e plots\, or SHAP values offer useful insights but are not yet adapted to 
 longitudinal predictors\, even though these dynamic markers have critical 
 information in health research.\nThis work addresses this limitation by ex
 ploring how current interpretability methods can be extended to RSF models
  that incorporate longitudinal data. To do so\, we rely on the DynForest p
 ackage\, which constructs random forests specifically designed to integrat
 e longitudinal markers into the construction of the forest. The aim is to 
 improve the interpretability of RSF in settings where repeated measurement
 s play a central role.\nCalendar subscription link for the complete semina
