• Abstract: Most of state of the art methods applied on time series consist of deep learning methods that are too complex to be interpreted. This lack of interpretability is a major drawback, as several applications in the real world are critical tasks, such as the medical field or the autonomous driving field. The explainability of models applied on time series has not gather much attention compared to the computer vision or the natural language processing fields. In this paper, we present an overview of existing explainable AI (XAI) methods applied on time series and illustrate the type of explanations they produce. We also provide a reflection on the impact of these explanation methods to provide confidence and trust in the AI systems.

  Our work serves as a framework for unifying the challenges of contemporary explainable AI (XAI) We demonstrate that while XAI methods provide supplementary and potentially useful output for machine learning models, researchers and decision-makers should be mindful of their conceptual and technical limitations. We examine three XAI research avenues spanning image, textual, and graph data, covering saliency, attention, and graph-type explainers.

  echo state networks have attracted many stares through time, mainly due to the simplicity and computational efficiency of their learning algorithm. This work addresses this issue by conducting an explainability study of Echo State Networks when applied to learning tasks with time series, image and video data. Specifically, the study proposes three different techniques capable of eliciting understandable information about the knowledge grasped by these recurrent models.

  counterfactual explanation systems try to enable a counterfactual reasoning by modifying the input image. We present a novel approach to generate such counterfactual image explanations based on adversarial image-to-image translation techniques. Our results show that our approach leads to significantly better results regarding mental models, explanation satisfaction, trust, emotions, and self-efficacy than two state-of-the art systems.
