Overview

• Examples

  • Apart from the examples shown above, we additionally present some comparisons to post-hoc explanations evaluated on a CoDA-Net.
  • In order to highlight the stability of the explanations, we additionally present contribution maps evaluated on videos here.
  • For the latter, see interpretability/eval_on_videos.py, for the others check out the jupyter notebook CoDA-Networks Examples.

• Interpretability metrics

  • Here we present the quantitative results of the CoDA-Net interpretability for a model trained on CIFAR10.
  • In order to reproduce these plots, check out the jupyter notebook CoDA-Networks Examples.
  • For more information, also check out the code in interpretability/.

• Training

  • In order to retrain the models according to the specifications outlined in the paper, see the experiments folder

Comparison to post-hoc explanation methods evaluated on the CoDA-Nets

Evaluated on videos

In order to highlight the stability of the contribution-based explanations of the CoDA-Nets, we present some examples for which the output for the respective class of the CoDA-Net was linearly decomposed frame by frame; for more information, see interpretability/eval_on_videos.py.

Quantitative Interpretability results

In order to reproduce these plots, check out the jupyter notebook CoDA-Networks Examples. For more information, see the paper and check out the code at interpretability/
