Ada-SISE: Adaptive Semantic Input Sampling for Efficient Explanation of Convolutional Neural Networks
Explainable AI (XAI) is an active research area to interpret a neural network's decision by ensuring transparency and trust in the task-specified learned models. Recently, perturbation-based model analysis has shown better interpretation, but backpropagation techniques are still prevailing because of their computational efficiency. In this work, we combine both approaches as a hybrid visual explanation algorithm and propose an efficient interpretation method for convolutional neural networks. Our method adaptively selects the most critical features that mainly contribute towards a prediction to probe the model by finding the activated features. Experimental results show that the proposed method can reduce the execution time up to 30 competitive interpretability without compromising the quality of explanation generated.
