• Abstract: This paper explores the intricate relationship between interpretability and robustness in deep learning models. Despite their remarkable performance across various tasks, deep learning models often exhibit critical vulnerabilities, including susceptibility to adversarial attacks, over-reliance on spurious correlations, and a lack of transparency in their decision-making processes. To address these limitations, we propose a novel framework that leverages Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanations (LIME) to systematically enhance model robustness. By identifying and mitigating the influence of irrelevant or misleading features, our approach iteratively refines the model, penalizing reliance on these features during training. Empirical evaluations on multiple benchmark datasets demonstrate that LIME-guided refinement not only improves interpretability but also significantly enhances resistance to adversarial perturbations and generalization to out-of-distribution data.

  We show how a PAC-Bayes bound is obtained for a general class of models, characterizing factors which influence performance in the interpolating regime. We quantify how the test error for overparameterized models achieving effectively zero training error depends on the quality of the implicit regularization imposed by e.g. the combination of model, parameter-initialization scheme.

  This paper shows the existence of a dichotomy between fairness and robustness, and analyzes when achieving fairness decreases the model robustness to adversarial samples. Experiments on non-linear models and different architectures validate the theoretical findings in multiple vision domains. The paper proposes a simple, yet effective, solution to construct models achieving good tradeoffs between fairness and robustness.

Experiment results on synthetic and real datasets show that our three proposed components significantly improve the robustness and reusability of the learned motion representations.
