摘要
En 中文
Vision Transformers (ViTs) have demonstrated remarkable performances on various computer vision tasks. Attention scores are often used to explain the decision-making process of ViTs, showing which tokens are more important than others. However, the attention scores have several limitations as an explanation for ViT, such as conflicting with other explainable methods or highlighting unrelated tokens. In order to address this limitation, we propose a novel method for generating a visual explanation map from ViTs. Unlike previous approaches that rely on attention scores, our method leverages ViT features and conducts a single forward pass through our Patch-level Mask prediction (PM) module. Our visual explanation map provides class-dependent and probabilistic interpretation that can identify crucial regions of model decisions. Experimental results demonstrate that our approach outperforms previous techniques in both classification and interpretability aspects. Additionally, it can be applied to the weakly-supervised object localization (WSOL) tasks using pseudo mask labels. Our method requires no extra parameters and necessitates minimal locality supervision, utilizing less than 1% of the ImageNet-1k training dataset.
