Class Activation Mapping (CAM) is a powerful technique used to understand the decision making of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) in computer vision. Recently, there have been attempts not only to generate better visual explanations, but also to improve classification performance using visual explanations. However, the previous works still have their own drawbacks. In this paper, we propose a novel architecture, LFI-CAM, which is trainable for image classification and visual explanation in an end-to-end manner. LFI-CAM generates an attention map for visual explanation during forward propagation, at the same time, leverages the attention map to improve the classification performance through the attention mechanism. Our Feature Importance Network (FIN) focuses on learning the feature importance instead of directly learning the attention map to obtain a more reliable and consistent attention map. We confirmed that LFI-CAM model is optimized not only by learning the feature importance but also by enhancing the backbone feature representation to focus more on important features of the input image. Experimental results show that LFI-CAM outperforms the baseline modelss accuracy on the classification tasks as well as significantly improves on the previous works in terms of attention map quality and stability over different hyper-parameters.

Deep neural networks are vulnerable to adversarial attacks and hard to interpret because of their black-box nature. The recently proposed invertible network is able to accurately reconstruct the inputs to a layer from its outputs, thus has the potent
ial to unravel the black-box model. An invertible network classifier can be viewed as a two-stage model: (1) invertible transformation from input space to the feature space; (2) a linear classifier in the feature space. We can determine the decision boundary of a linear classifier in the feature space; since the transform is invertible, we can invert the decision boundary from the feature space to the input space. Furthermore, we propose to determine the projection of a data point onto the decision boundary, and define explanation as the difference between data and its projection. Finally, we propose to locally approximate a neural network with its first-order Taylor expansion, and define feature importance using a local linear model. We provide the implementation of our method: url{https://github.com/juntang-zhuang/explain_invertible}.
We present a study using a class of post-hoc local explanation methods i.e., feature importance methods for understanding a deep learning (DL) emulator of climate. Specifically, we consider a multiple-input-single-output emulator that uses a DenseNet
encoder-decoder architecture and is trained to predict interannual variations of sea surface temperature (SST) at 1, 6, and 9 month lead times using the preceding 36 months of (appropriately filtered) SST data. First, feature importance methods are employed for individual predictions to spatio-temporally identify input features that are important for model prediction at chosen geographical regions and chosen prediction lead times. In a second step, we also examine the behavior of feature importance in a generalized sense by considering an aggregation of the importance heatmaps over training samples. We find that: 1) the climate emulators prediction at any geographical location depends dominantly on a small neighborhood around it; 2) the longer the prediction lead time, the further back the importance extends; and 3) to leading order, the temporal decay of importance is independent of geographical location. An ablation experiment is adopted to verify the findings. From the perspective of climate dynamics, these findings suggest a dominant role for local processes and a negligible role for remote teleconnections at the spatial and temporal scales we consider. From the perspective of network architecture, the spatio-temporal relations between the inputs and outputs we find suggest potential model refinements. We discuss further extensions of our methods, some of which we are considering in ongoing work.
A new method for local and global explanation of the machine learning black-box model predictions by tabular data is proposed. It is implemented as a system called AFEX (Attention-like Feature EXplanation) and consisting of two main parts. The first
part is a set of the one-feature neural subnetworks which aim to get a specific representation for every feature in the form of a basis of shape functions. The subnetworks use shortcut connections with trainable parameters to improve the network performance. The second part of AFEX produces shape functions of features as the weighted sum of the basis shape functions where weights are computed by using an attention-like mechanism. AFEX identifies pairwise interactions between features based on pairwise multiplications of shape functions corresponding to different features. A modification of AFEX with incorporating an additional surrogate model which approximates the black-box model is proposed. AFEX is trained end-to-end on a whole dataset only once such that it does not require to train neural networks again in the explanation stage. Numerical experiments with synthetic and real data illustrate AFEX.
Understanding and explaining deep learning models is an imperative task. Towards this, we propose a method that obtains gradient-based certainty estimates that also provide visual attention maps. Particularly, we solve for visual question answering t
ask. We incorporate modern probabilistic deep learning methods that we further improve by using the gradients for these estimates. These have two-fold benefits: a) improvement in obtaining the certainty estimates that correlate better with misclassified samples and b) improved attention maps that provide state-of-the-art results in terms of correlation with human attention regions. The improved attention maps result in consistent improvement for various methods for visual question answering. Therefore, the proposed technique can be thought of as a recipe for obtaining improved certainty estimates and explanation for deep learning models. We provide detailed empirical analysis for the visual question answering task on all standard benchmarks and comparison with state of the art methods.
Explanation methods applied to sequential models for multivariate time series prediction are receiving more attention in machine learning literature. While current methods perform well at providing instance-wise explanations, they struggle to efficie
ntly and accurately make attributions over long periods of time and with complex feature interactions. We propose WinIT, a framework for evaluating feature importance in time series prediction settings by quantifying the shift in predictive distribution over multiple instances in a windowed setting. Comprehensive empirical evidence shows our method improves on the previous state-of-the-art, FIT, by capturing temporal dependencies in feature importance. We also demonstrate how the solution improves the appropriate attribution of features within time steps, which existing interpretability methods often fail to do. We compare with baselines on simulated and real-world clinical data. WinIT achieves 2.47x better performance than FIT and other feature importance methods on real-world clinical MIMIC-mortality task.
