A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for generating personalized recommendations to address a target problem. A machine learning prediction model directed to a target problem for an individual is built with historical data. After receiving data about the individual, a prediction for the individual is obtained in connection with the target problem by the built model using the received data about the individual. Key predictors (e.g., parameters) and their weight for the individual are generated using the prediction by an explanation model. Record(s) are identified from the historical data by performing similarity analysis of the historical data using the key predictors and their weight. Such records provide a population closely related to the individual with respect to the target problem. These records are then analyzed and recommendations are provided to a user to solve the target problem for the individual based on the analysis of the identified record(s).
