Expanding Explainability Horizons: A Unified Concept-Based System for Local, Global, and Misclassification Explanations
share
Explainability of intelligent models has been garnering increasing attention in recent years. Of the various explainability approaches, concept-based techniques are notable for utilizing a set of human-meaningful concepts instead of focusing on individual pixels. However, there is a scarcity of methods that consistently provide both local and global explanations. Moreover, most of the methods have no offer to explain misclassification cases. To address these challenges, our study follows a straightforward yet effective approach. We propose a unified concept-based system, which inputs a number of super-pixelated images into the networks, allowing them to learn better representations of the target's objects as well as the target's concepts. This method automatically learns, scores, and extracts local and global concepts. Our experiments revealed that, in addition to enhancing performance, the models could provide deeper insights into predictions and elucidate false classifications.
