• Title: This changes to that : Combining causal and non-causal explanations to generate disease progression in capsule endoscopy
• Authors: Anuja Vats, Ahmed Mohammed, Marius Pedersen, Nirmalie Wiratunga
• Abstract summary: We propose a unified explanation approach that combines both model-dependent and agnostic explanations to produce an explanation set. The generated explanations are consistent in the neighborhood of a sample and can highlight causal relationships between image content and the outcome.

• Abstract: Due to the unequivocal need for understanding the decision processes of deep learning networks, both modal-dependent and model-agnostic techniques have become very popular. Although both of these ideas provide transparency for automated decision making, most methodologies focus on either using the modal-gradients (model-dependent) or ignoring the model internal states and reasoning with a model's behavior/outcome (model-agnostic) to instances. In this work, we propose a unified explanation approach that given an instance combines both model-dependent and agnostic explanations to produce an explanation set. The generated explanations are not only consistent in the neighborhood of a sample but can highlight causal relationships between image content and the outcome. We use Wireless Capsule Endoscopy (WCE) domain to illustrate the effectiveness of our explanations. The saliency maps generated by our approach are comparable or better on the softmax information score.

Our approach overcomes the original method in terms of faithfully replicating the black-box model's mechanism and the consistency and reliability of the generated explanations.

  We introduce a measure of explanation consistency which we use to highlight the identified problems on the MIMIC-CXR dataset. We find explanations of identical models but with different training setups have a low consistency: $approx$ 33% on average. We conclude that current trends in model explanation are not sufficient to mitigate the risks of deploying models in real life healthcare applications.
