Explainable AI (XAI) is crucial for fostering human trust in deep neural network (DNN) predictions. Traditional XAI methods often rely on individual pixel-based explanations, which highlight significant pixels but may not align with human intuition. In contrast, concept-based explanations are more interpretable but typically depend on human-annotated concepts, limiting scalability. In this paper, we present Any Segment Explanations (ASE), a black-box method that generates explanations by evaluating model prediction through concept insertion and deletion. ASE extracts human-understandable concepts from any image without manual annotations. Experiments demonstrate that ASE is 38 times faster than the state-of-the-art EAC method, achieving superior Area Under the Curve (AUC) scores and providing more intuitive explanations.

摘要

Explainable AI (XAI) is crucial for fostering human trust in deep neural network (DNN) predictions. Traditional XAI methods often rely on individual pixel-based explanations, which highlight significant pixels but may not align with human intuition. In contrast, concept-based explanations are more interpretable but typically depend on human-annotated concepts, limiting scalability. In this paper, we present Any Segment Explanations (ASE), a black-box method that generates explanations by evaluating model prediction through concept insertion and deletion. ASE extracts human-understandable concepts from any image without manual annotations. Experiments demonstrate that ASE is 38 times faster than the state-of-the-art EAC method, achieving superior Area Under the Curve (AUC) scores and providing more intuitive explanations.
