Study Notes
Recap: Foundations of Explainable AI (XAI)
- There are 2 basic interaction types: select and explore. Other types include reconfigure, encode, abstract/elaborate, filter, and connect.
- There are 3 view arrangement tabs: dashboard, scrolling, and direct vs. indirect manipulation.
- Explainability refers to revealing the decision-making processes of AI models in a faithful and comprehensible manner.
- XAI techniques include interpretable models, adversarial testing and counterfactuals, attribution methods, activation and feature visualizations, and XAI verification through occlusion and perturbation.
- XAI is necessary for monitoring and explaining AI-based decision-making due to legal requirements and concerns about fairness, causality, reliability, trust, and transparency.
- XAI can be done a priori (before training and testing), ad-hoc (during training and testing), or post-hoc (after training and testing).
- Algorithm-centric XAI focuses on explaining how the model decided, while human-centric XAI aligns the model's decision with the user's understanding.
- XAI as a process involves input data, an AI model, an explainer, external resources, and transition functions.
- XAI pipeline involves input data, an AI model, an explainer, external resources, transition functions, and explanations (visualizations, verbalizations, surrogate models, etc.).
- XAI pipeline can suggest changes in the ML model, parameters, and data for the final model.
- XAI pipeline aims to achieve intelligibility, transparency, interpretability, and comprehensibility.
- XAI pipeline can answer questions such as "What is my model learning?" and "Is the model biased?" at different stages of training, testing, and deployment.
