Abstract

En 中文
Explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) has witnessed significant advances in the field of object recognition, with saliency maps being used to highlight image features relevant to the predictions of learned models. Although these advances have made artificial intelligence (AI)-based technology more interpretable to humans, several issues have come to light, as some approaches present explanations irrelevant to predictions, and cannot guarantee the validity of XAI (axioms). In this study, we propose the Baseline Shapley-based Explainable Detector (BSED), which extends the Shapley value to object detection for images, thereby enhancing the validity of interpretation. The Shapley value can attribute the prediction of a learned model to a baseline feature while satisfying the explainability axioms. The processing cost for the BSED is within the reasonable range, while the original Shapley value is prohibitively computationally expensive. Furthermore, BSED is a generalizable method that can be applied to various object detectors for images in a model-agnostic manner, and interpret various detection targets without fine-grained parameter tuning. These strengths can enable the practical applicability of XAI. We present quantitative and qualitative evaluations to demonstrate that our method outperforms existing methods in terms of explanation validity. Moreover, we present some applications, such as correcting detection based on explanations from our method.
