• Title: Towards the Linear Algebra Based Taxonomy of XAI Explanations
• Authors: Sven Nomm
• Abstract summary: Methods of Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) were developed to answer the question why a certain prediction or estimation was made. XAI proposed in the literature mainly concentrate their attention on distinguishing explanations with respect to involving the human agent. This paper proposes a simple linear algebra-based taxonomy for local explanations.

• Abstract: This paper proposes an alternative approach to the basic taxonomy of explanations produced by explainable artificial intelligence techniques. Methods of Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) were developed to answer the question why a certain prediction or estimation was made, preferably in terms easy to understand by the human agent. XAI taxonomies proposed in the literature mainly concentrate their attention on distinguishing explanations with respect to involving the human agent, which makes it complicated to provide a more mathematical approach to distinguish and compare different explanations. This paper narrows its attention to the cases where the data set of interest belongs to $\mathbb{R} ^n$ and proposes a simple linear algebra-based taxonomy for local explanations.

  A machine learning model is trained to predict feature attribution scores with only one inference. Despite their efficiency, amortized explainers can produce inaccurate predictions and misleading explanations. We propose selective explanations, a novel feature attribution method that detects when amortized explainers generate low-quality explanations.

  We propose to provide more detailed explanations by leveraging the human cognitive capacity to accumulate knowledge by incrementally receiving more details. We introduce Incremental XAI to automatically partition explanations for general and atypical instances. Memorability is improved by reusing base factors and reducing the number of factors shown in atypical cases.

  Second-order explainable AI (SOXAI) was recently proposed to extend explainable AI (XAI) from the instance level to the dataset level. We demonstrate for the first time, via example classification and segmentation cases, that eliminating irrelevant concepts from the training set based on actionable insights from SOXAI can enhance a model's performance.

  Modelling taxonomic and thematic relatedness is important for building AI with comprehensive natural language understanding. We design a new hypernym-hyponym probing task and perform a comparative probing study of taxonomic and thematic SGNS and GloVe embeddings. Experiments indicate that both types of embeddings encode some taxonomic information, but the amount, as well as the geometric properties of the encodings, are independently related to both the encoder architecture and the embedding training data.

  The emphasis of XAI research appears to have turned to a more pragmatic explanation approach for better understanding. An extensive area where cognitive science research may substantially influence XAI advancements is evaluating user knowledge and feedback. We propose a framework to experiment with generating and evaluating the explanations on the grounds of different cognitive levels of understanding.

Our framework generates sequence of explanations in a dialog by mediating the differences between the minds of machine and human user.

  Most popular tools for post-hoc explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) are either insensitive to context or difficult to summarize. I introduce emphrational Shapley values, a novel XAI method that synthesizes and extends these seemingly incompatible approaches. I leverage tools from decision theory and causal modeling to formalize and implement a pragmatic approach that resolves a number of known challenges in XAI.
