• Abstract: How can we find interpretable, domain-appropriate models of natural phenomena given some complex, raw data such as images? Can we use such models to derive scientific insight from the data? In this paper, we propose some methods for achieving this. In particular, we implement disentangled representation learning, sparse deep neural network training and symbolic regression, and assess their usefulness in forming interpretable models of complex image data. We demonstrate their relevance to the field of bioimaging using a well-studied test problem of classifying cell states in microscopy data. We find that such methods can produce highly parsimonious models that achieve $\sim98\%$ of the accuracy of black-box benchmark models, with a tiny fraction of the complexity. We explore the utility of such interpretable models in producing scientific explanations of the underlying biological phenomenon.

  This paper proposes a novel framework to reinforce classification models using language-guided generated counterfactual images. We identify model weaknesses by testing the model using the counterfactual image dataset. We employ the counterfactual images as an augmented dataset to fine-tune and reinforce the classification model.
