{ "input": "Explainer: hello, you can ask any questions to help you better understand the explanation on the left screen Seeker: How does the simpler model work? Explainer: For an input data point, we can perturb around this data point and get predictions from complex classification models. Then we use these data samples to train the simple surrogate model. Therefore the simpler model can mimic the behavior of the complex model around one data point Explainer: As we understand the behavior of the simpler model, we can know the importance of each image region when the simpler model does a prediction. Seeker: What metrics do you use to measure in the model? Colours? Pixels?" }

{ "input": "Explainer: hello, you can ask any questions to help you better understand the explanation on the left screen. Seeker: what is the factor in the explanation for the model prediction that indicated that it was a leopard Explainer: Here as we can observe from the second image, the explanation model highlight some regions with yellow line to explain to us how the classification model get its prediction. Seeker: Ok... Explainer: The classification model is very complex. We cannot directly understand how it predicts the image as a leopard. Explainer: So we use an explanation model, LIME, to try to explain how the classification model gets the prediction. Explainer: And the explanation is the second image. Seeker: Ok, so in summary the LIME framework helps to identify what the image is? Explainer: In summary, the LIME method explain the prediction from a deep learning classification model Explainer: The deep learning classification model predicts or identifies what the image is. Seeker: Would it be possible to identify different people, using the deep learning classification model? Seeker: If the AI were fed the data Explainer: Yes. We can do it with corresponding data. Seeker: What is swim transformer then? Explainer: Swin transformer is the classification model, which an classify an image into a category. Explainer: Swin transformer is a very complex model and contains many neural layers, e.g., convolutional layers, and transformer layers. Explainer: it can classify an image into a category. But we cannot know which regions of the image it focuses on to do a prediction. Seeker: how advanced is the swim transformer -- if the predefined categories are races and the visual input was a person of mixed decent would it be able to categorise Seeker: sure, thanks for explaining Explainer: The swin transformer is pretty accurate in a very large dataset. It can reach 84% on that dataset. Explainer: But I'm not sure whether it can perform well in the case you mentioned. Seeker: yup" }

Seeker: What about ai using image based recognition by utilising through experience Explainer: Sorry, I don't understand your question. Seeker: Or through training sets and test sets to determine the reliability of the ai Explainer: The classification model is evaluated by the test set. Explainer: But evaluating a classification model on test sets can only let humans know how accurate the model is. Seeker: Because now from the explanation, i can see that the ai uses heatmap based the image to determine if it matches. Is there any other way to match the image other than the current method observed? Explainer: The heatmap is used to display which region of the input image the classification model focuses on to make a prediction. Seeker: Okay.. just curious but to what extend does it predict the animal reliably? Does it only predict the animals or the species of animal too?" }

{ "output": "Explainer: It depends on the dataset used to train the classification model. Here the classification model can predict different species of animals. it can also predict no-living objects, e.g., baby chairs." }

Explainer: An example simpler model is the linear model. Seeker: How are regions of image that are most important for model's prediction chosen? Explainer: The output is the sum of input features with weights. The weights be used to indicate the importance of input features, i.e., image regions Seeker: What are the constraints of the LIME model? What are cases that it may be inaccurate in classifying? Seeker: How are the weights determined? Explainer: For an input data point, we can perturb around this data point and get predictions from the complex models. Then we use these data samples to train the simpler model. Explainer: Therefore the simpler model can mimic the behavior of the complex model around one data point. Explainer: As we need to do perturbations around input data points, the LIME method may be unstable. Also, the type of simpler models also will affect the quality of explanations. Seeker: How would you explain the term \"perturbations\" to a five year old? Seeker: Are there any models similar to LIME model, and what makes the LIME model different from similar models? What may make the LIME model more suitable as compated to similar models? Seeker: *compared Explainer: Perturbations of an image are like tiny scribbles on a picture. Explainer: There are many other explanation methods, like shap or grad-cam. Explainer: The LIME method can be applied to any type of deep learning model. Some other methods are model-specific, which means they can only be applied to a certain type of deep learning model. Seeker: Does that mean the perturbations are like \"distractions\" that the computer has to be trained to filter against to be able to catergorise accurately? Explainer: Not exactly. Explainer: the purpose of the perturbations is not really to train the classification model, but to understand it better. Explainer: We want to see which changes or 'distractions' cause the model to misidentify the image, because that tells us a lot about how the model is making its decisions. Explainer: So these perturbations are like little experiments that help us learn what the model considers important or unimportant in the images it's looking at. Seeker: Ah I see, thanks." }

Explainer: Ask questions about the explanation on the left screen. Seeker: There isn’t much that can be seen from the explanation for the model prediction Explainer: Can specify more about this? Seeker: A leopard is defined by its spots, but in the explanation for the model prediction there are only a few spots covered, while spaces that should be occupied by spots are occupied by an eye and nose Explainer: The classification model will learn how to decide what the object is mainly based on the data. It will learn automatically from data. Explainer: It may focus on different features that we humans focus on. Seeker: Interesting Explainer: But as the classification model is quite complex. We don't know which regions the classification model focuses on to make a prediction. Is it the same as what we humans think? Or it will focus on other regions. Seeker: From this experience it seems that the focus is on other regions Explainer: So we have an explanation method, called LIME here. We use this explanation method to draw which regions the classification model focuses on when it makes a prediction. Seeker: The AI maybe sees the leopard as a whole rather than just the spots" }

Seeker: what does this sentence mean: This heatmap is generated by weighting the activations of the final convolutional layer by their corresponding gradients and averaging the resulting weights spatially. Seeker: particularly, the term \"final convolutional layer\" Explainer: The classification model will contain many layers to extract features from the image. the convolutional layer is one of them. Seeker: what other layers are there? Explainer: Grad-CAM works by analyzing the output of the final convolutional layer of the network and calculating how changes to each region of the image would affect the network's output.

Explainer: Yes. There are many other explanation methods, like LIME, or integrated gradients, and also many studies to compare them. Seeker: How do LIME or integrated gradients compare with grad-CAM in terms of explanation robustness? Explainer: Yes, we can. Using image classification as an example, if a model consistently assigns higher attribution scores to the background regions when classifying an image into the leopard category, this could indicate the model focused on the wrong features to decide the leopard category. Explainer: Grad-cam is more robust compared to the other two explanation methods.

Seeker: How does the method arrive at the prediction based solely on the generated heatmap? Explainer: The classification model will use the entire image to make a prediction. But it is very complex and we don't understand how it makes such a prediction. Explainer: We use grad-cam to explanation the model's prediction by highlighing regions of an image that are most important for a deep neural network's prediction. Explainer: So heatmap is used to explain how a classification model makes a prediction after the classification model has made an prediction. Seeker: I don't fully understand the terms on how the heatmap is generated. Is it possible to explain in more layman terms? Explainer: Yes. sure. Explainer: The classification model will extract features from images and use those images to make a prediction.

Seeker: How is it determined which model is the most suitable to use for certain images? Explainer: The classification model will be tested on a dataset. We choose the model based on accuracy. Seeker: Ok. Will there be cases where the model makes an incorrect prediction? How will that be explained? Explainer: Yes. the classification model is not 100% accurate. It will make wrong predictions. Explainer: We can use the explanation method to find out why the model makes a wrong prediction. Explainer: For the user, we can use the explanation to decide whether we an believe the prediction or not. Explainer: If the explanation is not reasonable, we can reject the prediction. Explainer: For researchers, the explanation of the wrong results can help them find which part of the input leads the model to predict wrong. The researcher can adjust or improve the model based on that. Seeker: What kind of improvements can be made to make the model more accurate in its predictions? Explainer: As the classification model learn how to make predictions from a large set of data, we can adjust the dataset by introducing more images that the model performs bad no.

Explainer: They have different accuracy. Seeker: Swin transformer has the highest accuracy out of all the models? Explainer: It's not the best model. There are classification models performing better than swin transformer. But it performs better than AlexNet or VGG16. Explainer: But swin transformer can reach 84% accuracy on a very large dataset. Explainer: Do you have any questions about the explanation method, LIME? Seeker: What is the explanation model used for? Explainer: The LIME model is used to explain the classification model. Explainer: The classification model is a deep learning model, which is very complex to understand for humans. Explainer: Explanation models, like LIME we used here, are used to explain how the classification model makes such a prediction. Explainer: It generates explanations by highlighting regions of an image that are most important for the classification model's prediction. This is what shows in the second image. Seeker: How Lime model recognises the most important parts for the model prediction Explainer: The LIME model works by training a local surrogate model around a specific prediction. Explainer: The surrogate model is a simple, understandable model. Explainer: The simple surrogate model is used to mimic the behavior of the complex AI model around one data point. Seeker: From the images i've seen earlier, are the other 2 images/options also explained using LIME Explainer: Yes. Three options are all explained by LIME. Explainer: There are three different classifications model in three options, but their predictions are explained by the same explanation method, LIME. Explainer: Usually better classification model will have a more reasonable explanation. Seeker: how about the precision of the model Explainer: Do you mean the classification model or the explanation model?

Seeker: for example, if AI only takes in the leopard spots on certain area, it could be from a picture of a lady wearing leopard spots Explainer: The small parts highlighted by the explanation model show the regions that are most important for the classification to make a prediction. Seeker: so we show a picture of a leopard and the output by AI will state that it is a leopard. what if the input is someone wearing full leopard spots clothing Seeker: based on the model prediction only taking small parts of the input picture. it could possibly only take in the leopard spots Explainer: This will be another task.

Explainer: We use grad-cam to explanation the model's prediction by highlighing regions of an image that are most important for a deep neural network's prediction. Explainer: So heatmap is used to explain how a classification model makes a prediction after the classification model has made an prediction.

Seeker: Because now from the explanation, i can see that the ai uses heatmap based the image to determine if it matches. Is there any other way to match the image other than the current method observed?

Seeker: Okay.. just curious but to what extend does it predict the animal reliably? Does it only predict the animals or the species of animal too? Explainer: It depends on the dataset used to train the classification model. Here the classification model can predict different species of animals. Explainer: it can also predict no-living objects, e.g., baby chairs. Seeker: I have seen some stuff where they said they are able to utilise eigen vectors to train or use the ai to recognise the human's face. In this case, it would be different? Explainer: In that task, we need different models and different datasets to do it. Seeker: So as long as the data set covered the relevant objects, as long as the heatmap covers the image that you would want to recognise. Then it will most probably be able to do so? Explainer: But we can still use the explanation model to explain how those models get their predictions. Seeker: Oh okay Explainer: as long as the data set covered the relevant objects, we can design a model to do it. Explainer: The heatmap will not be used to train the model.

Explainer: if we showed the model only the areas that LIME indicates as being most important, there's no guarantee that the classification model would still predict correctly.

Does it take the one that occupies the majority space? Explainer: The model will have a high probability to classify the image into the dog category or the goldfish category Explainer: When we observe how the image is classified into the dog category, a good classification model should focus on the area of dogs.

Here it classifies the image as a goldfish. Explainer: But the classification model is complex. We don't understand it. We don't know how it predicts the image as a goldfish. Explainer: Then we use the grad-cam, a explanation model to generate the second image, which tries to explain which region the classification model focuses on to make such decision. Seeker: Interesting Seeker: In the event that there is more than 1 important region in an image (eg the image has a goldfish and a shark), will the grad-cam be able to detect both creatures? Explainer: Grad-cam actually cannot detect features. It is used to explain the prediction of the classification model, which is swin transformer here. Explainer: But if you mean whether the swin transformer can detect both creatures, it may do it. Seeker: Sorry, the heatmap I mean since the resulting heatmap will overlay on the original image to provide a visual representation Explainer: A good classification model should assign high probability to both shark and goldfish if an image contains both of them. Explainer: If we use the grad cam to explain how the classification model classifies the image into the shark class, a good classification model will focus on the features related to the shark. Explainer: it's the same for the goldfish. Seeker: What does it mean by \"weighting the activations of the final convolutional layer by their corresponding gradients\"? Does that refers to the colour gradient of the image? Explainer: The classification model will first extract features from original images, and generate a feature map. Then we will calculate how changes to each feature would affect the network's output. Explainer: The feature map here is \"activations of the final convolutional layer\" Explainer: if the prediction is sensitive to some features in the feature map, this means those part of the feature is of high importance Explainer: it will be redder in the heatmap. Seeker: Understand Seeker: Does the grad-cam method have a high probability of correct predictions? Explainer: we cannot measure its correctness as there is no ground truth for the explanation of the classification model. But It works pretty well in general. Explainer: Swin transformer predicts quite accurately. around 84% on a very large dataset (i.e., imagenet.) Seeker: Thanks for the explanations." }

{ "input": "Explainer: hello, you can ask any questions to help you better understand the explanation on the left screen. Seeker: does the Grad-CAM retroactively explain the explanation based on deep learning output? Explainer: Sorry, what do you mean by retroactively? Explainer: Grad-cam will generate explanations after a learning model makes a prediction. Seeker: oh I mean the explanation is generated after the fact (i.e., the classification is already done, and Grad-CAM tries to find out why the model carries out its classification in a certain way) Seeker: Yep I think that's retroactive! Explainer: Yes. that's how Grad-cam works. Seeker: thanks! Seeker: what does this sentence mean: This heatmap is generated by weighting the activations of the final convolutional layer by their corresponding gradients and averaging the resulting weights spatially. Seeker: particularly, the term \"final convolutional layer\" Explainer: The classification model will contain many layers to extract features from the image. the convolutional layer is one of them. Seeker: what other layers are there? Explainer: Grad-CAM works by analyzing the output of the final convolutional layer of the network and calculating how changes to each region of the image would affect the network's output. Seeker: how effective is grad-cam in explaining the prediction as compared to other methods? Explainer: Other layers are transformer layers and full-connected layers. Explainer: Grad-cam explains deep learning models directly from the feature they extracted, and it performs well when explaining image-related models. Seeker: are there comparative studies comparing grad-cam with other methodologies? Seeker: what are some applications of grad-cam? Can we use grad-cam explanations to improve deep learning models? Explainer: Yes. There are many other explanation methods, like LIME, or integrated gradients, and also many studies to compare them. Seeker: How do LIME or integrated gradients compare with grad-CAM in terms of explanation robustness?" }

{ "output": "Explainer: Yes, we can. Using image classification as an example, if a model consistently assigns higher attribution scores to the background regions when classifying an image into the leopard category, this could indicate the model focused on the wrong features to decide the leopard category. Grad-cam is more robust compared to the other two explanation methods. But the other two methods are model agnostic, which means those methods can be used to explain any type of deep learning model." }

Explainer: An example simpler model is the linear model. Seeker: How are regions of image that are most important for model's prediction chosen? Explainer: The output is the sum of input features with weights. The weights be used to indicate the importance of input features, i.e., image regions Seeker: What are the constraints of the LIME model? What are cases that it may be inaccurate in classifying? Seeker: How are the weights determined? Explainer: For an input data point, we can perturb around this data point and get predictions from the complex models. Then we use these data samples to train the simpler model. Explainer: Therefore the simpler model can mimic the behavior of the complex model around one data point. Explainer: As we need to do perturbations around input data points, the LIME method may be unstable. Also, the type of simpler models also will affect the quality of explanations. Seeker: How would you explain the term \"perturbations\" to a five year old? Seeker: Are there any models similar to LIME model, and what makes the LIME model different from similar models? What may make the LIME model more suitable as compated to similar models? Seeker: *compared Explainer: Perturbations of an image are like tiny scribbles on a picture. Explainer: There are many other explanation methods, like shap or grad-cam. Explainer: The LIME method can be applied to any type of deep learning model. Some other methods are model-specific, which means they can only be applied to a certain type of deep learning model. Seeker: Does that mean the perturbations are like \"distractions\" that the computer has to be trained to filter against to be able to catergorise accurately? Explainer: Not exactly. Explainer: the purpose of the perturbations is not really to train the classification model, but to understand it better. Explainer: We want to see which changes or 'distractions' cause the model to misidentify the image, because that tells us a lot about how the model is making its decisions. Explainer: So these perturbations are like little experiments that help us learn what the model considers important or unimportant in the images it's looking at. Seeker: Ah I see, thanks. Explainer: Do you have other questions? Seeker: Yep, just one more! Seeker: Typing Explainer: okay. sure. Seeker: Given that the LIME model prioritises regions of image that are most important for prediction, would it be possible someday that it can highlight the entire portion that makes up the determined subject, or would only more important sections being highlighted be deemed sufficient explanation? Seeker: ^Hope the above question kinda make sense" }

{ "output": "Explainer: In theory, it's possible that LIME could highlight the entire portion of an image that makes up the determined subject if every part of that subject was equally important in making the prediction. But in practice, not every part of an image is equally important for making a prediction. For instance, when recognizing a leopard, the model might give more weight to the eyes, and nose, and less weight to the ears. So LIME might only highlight these more important parts." }

Explainer: For the classification model, the accuracy is 84%. So the probability of error is 16%. Seeker: what if there are overlapping features of other objects, will it be able to tell both objects Explainer: It depends. If objects' unique visual characters are not hidden by others, the classification model may identify them. Explainer: But the classification model's results will depend on the data it sees in the training data and also depends on what it learns from the data.

Seeker: A leopard is defined by its spots, but in the explanation for the model prediction there are only a few spots covered, while spaces that should be occupied by spots are occupied by an eye and nose Explainer: The classification model will learn how to decide what the object is mainly based on the data.

Explainer: But evaluating a classification model on test sets can only let humans know how accurate the model is. Seeker: Because now from the explanation, i can see that the ai uses heatmap based the image to determine if it matches. Is there any other way to match the image other than the current method observed? Explainer: The heatmap is used to display which region of the input image the classification model focuses on to make a prediction. Seeker: Okay.. just curious but to what extend does it predict the animal reliably? Does it only predict the animals or the species of animal too? Explainer: It depends on the dataset used to train the classification model. Here the classification model can predict different species of animals. Explainer: it can also predict no-living objects, e.g., baby chairs. Seeker: I have seen some stuff where they said they are able to utilise eigen vectors to train or use the ai to recognise the human's face. In this case, it would be different? Explainer: In that task, we need different models and different datasets to do it. Seeker: So as long as the data set covered the relevant objects, as long as the heatmap covers the image that you would want to recognise. Then it will most probably be able to do so? Explainer: But we can still use the explanation model to explain how those models get their predictions. Seeker: Oh okay Explainer: as long as the data set covered the relevant objects, we can design a model to do it. Explainer: The heatmap will not be used to train the model. It will explain how the model made decisions after the model is trained. Seeker: Uhm based on this current ai, what is the reliability?

{ "input": "Explainer: hello, you can ask any questions to help you better understand the explanation on the left screen. Seeker: what is the image classification model Explainer: It is a deep learning model that can classify an image into a category Explainer: For the example on the left screen, the classification model classifies the first image as goldfish. Seeker: can you tell me a little more about the swin transformer? Explainer: Sure. The Swin Transformer is a type of deep learning model designed to analyze images, which works by dividing the image into small parts and paying selective attention to each part, thereby allowing it to handle high-quality, detailed images more efficiently. Explainer: swin transformer performs well on image-related tasks, like the image classification here. Seeker: is it right to say that the Grad-CAM method is more of a visualization method for the data processing by the Swin Transformer? Explainer: Yes. The grad-CAM method visualized how the Swin Transformer makes a prediction of an image. Seeker: can you explain the following sentence in simpler terms? \"This heatmap is generated by weighting the activations of the final convolutional layer by their corresponding gradients and averaging the resulting weights spatially.\" Explainer: The swin transformer has many neural layers, which can extract features of images. the convolutional layer is one of these neural layers. The activations of the convolutional layer contains the features for each image regions. Explainer: Grad-cam generate the second heatmap image by calculating how changes to feature of each image region would affect the model's output. Explainer: When we change a region of the image and the model's output changes a lot, this means that image region is important to the model prediction. Explainer: Bluer colors are used to represent areas of low importance, while redder colors indicate areas of high importance. Seeker: does that mean that brighter colors in the actual image equate to changes in the image region? Explainer: No. When changing images, we will equally change feature of image regions. Seeker: so how do you weight the activations of the convolutional layer? Explainer: activations of the convolutional layer contain extracted features of images. For each region of images, there are multiple features. Explainer: We will calculate how changes in each feature for each image region will affect the models prediction. Seeker: what are some features?" }

The classification mode classifies it as a goldfish. Explainer: But the classification model is complex. We don't understand it. We don't know how it predicts the image as a goldfish. Explainer: And the explanation model generates the second image, which tries to explain which region the classification model focues on to make such decision Explainer: The reason that the classification model focuses on the top fish may be that the top fish is larger and positioned clearly. This makes the classification model easier to identify it.

How will it choose which data points to highlight? Explainer: LIME works by training a local surrogate model around a specific prediction. Explainer: The surrogate model is a white box model and inherently interpretable. Explainer: An example surrogate model is the linear model. Explainer: The output is the sum of input features with weights. The weights be used to indicate the importance of input features. Seeker: so the surrogate model will be trained on the prediction outputs of the transformer used to predict the image? Seeker: ah okay understand" }

{ "output": "Explainer: yes. the surrogate model will be trained on the prediction outputs of the transformer" }

{ "input": "Explainer: hello, you can ask any questions to help you better understand the explanation on the left screen. Seeker: what do you mean by importance? Seeker: for the different colours Seeker: what is the final convolutional layer Explainer: The red color means the area is of high importance. The blue color means the area is of low importance. The importance means how important the region is when a classification model makes a prediction. Explainer: High important area means the image in these area contains key features for the classification model to classify an image into a category. Explainer: It is a layer in the classification model. The output of that layer is high-dimensional features extracted by the classificaiton model. Explainer: Grad-cam can only be used for deep learning models that have convolutional layers. Seeker: I see Seeker: what is a gradcam Explainer: Grad-CAM is a technique to generate explanations by highlighting regions of an image that are most important for a deep neural network's prediction. Explainer: Here grad-cam model generates the heatmap to explain the prediction from a classification model. Seeker: So the Grad-cam is used to explain the classfication network?" }

{ "output": "Explainer: Yes. exactly." }

{ "input": "Explainer: hello, you can ask any questions to help you better understand the explanation on the left screen. Seeker: How does the LIME model sample data points/regions when interpreting an input image" }

{ "output": "Explainer: It will first group the original image into super-pixels. A superpixel is a group of connected pixels in an image that share a similar color. we can perturb the pixel value of superpixel to get sampled data points." }

{ "input": "Explainer: hello, you can ask any questions to help you better understand the explanation on the left screen. Seeker: does it identify the specific type of animal instead of the general identification? Explainer: This will depend on the dataset used to train the classification model. The model here can identify specific type of animal. Explainer: Like different species of fish, cats, or dogs. Seeker: ohh thats kinda amazing Seeker: is it possible for it to detect multiple animals at once? Seeker: what is the accuracy level? Explainer: For the model on the left side, it can only detect one animal at once. But as long as we have data, we can train the model to detect multiple animals at once. Explainer: The accuracy is 84% on very large dataset (imagenet) Seeker: ohh Explainer: Even though the classification model performs pretty well, how the classification model predicts a category for an image is not understandable to humans. So we have the Grad-cam to explain the behavior of the classification model. Seeker: oh, understand" }

{ "output": "Explainer: Grad-cam generates a heatmap that highlights the regions of the image that are most important for the prediction, which is the second image on the left screen. Do you have questions about the Grad-cam method?" }

{ "input": "Explainer: hello, you can ask any questions to help you better understand the explanation on the left screen. Seeker: Are regions colored in red therefore areas that have been identified as containing key features for the animal in question? Explainer: Yes. it means the classification model focuses more on those area to make a prediction. Explainer: as explained by the Grad-cam method. Seeker: The explanation provided is pretty clear! Thank you." }

{ "output": "Explainer: thanks. Can you ask more questions? As our study aims to collect more questions from users." }

{ "input": "Explainer: hello, you can ask any questions to help you better understand the explanation on the left screen. Seeker: What am I supposed to do here? Explainer: Ask questions about the explanation on the left screen. Seeker: There isn’t much that can be seen from the explanation for the model prediction Explainer: Can specify more about this? Seeker: A leopard is defined by its spots, but in the explanation for the model prediction there are only a few spots covered, while spaces that should be occupied by spots are occupied by an eye and nose Explainer: The classification model will learn how to decide what the object is mainly based on the data. It will learn automatically from data. Explainer: It may focus on different features that we humans focus on. Seeker: Interesting Explainer: But as the classification model is quite complex. We don't know which regions the classification model focuses on to make a prediction. Is it the same as what we humans think? Or it will focus on other regions. Seeker: From this experience it seems that the focus is on other regions Explainer: So we have an explanation method, called LIME here. We use this explanation method to draw which regions the classification model focuses on when it makes a prediction. Seeker: The AI maybe sees the leopard as a whole rather than just the spots Explainer: Yes. Explainer: Probably. Seeker: Is this technique a recently developed one? Explainer: This method was developed several years ago. Seeker: It’s an interesting technique. So how else can it explain the predictions? Explainer: LIME can explain tabular data, text data, and image data, providing explanations in all these cases. Explainer: Also, it is a model-agnostic method, which means it can explain different types of deep learning models. Seeker: What other kind of learning models are there? Explainer: Like deep learning models used to automatically diagnose disease and identify the sentiment of a sentence. Explainer: or self-driving car. Explainer: The explanation method like LIME, is particularly effective in complex domains where interpretability is crucial, such as healthcare, finance, and legal systems. Explainer: Because understanding the reasons behind a deep learning model’s prediction can impact critical decision-making processes. Seeker: Okay that makes more sense nkw Seeker: Now Explainer: Do you have other questions? Seeker: Nope" }

{ "output": "Explainer: Thanks for your questions." }

{ "input": "Explainer: hello, you can ask any questions to help you better understand the explanation on the left screen. Seeker: Can you define \"swim transformer\"" }

{ "output": "Explainer: It is the classification model we used to classify an image into a category. It performs well on image-related tasks. For the example on the left screen, the classification model, swin transformer, classifies the first image as a leopard." }

{ "input": "Explainer: hello, you can ask any questions to help you better understand the explanation on the left screen. Seeker: what is the image classification model Explainer: It is a deep learning model that can classify an image into a category Explainer: For the example on the left screen, the classification model classifies the first image as goldfish. Seeker: can you tell me a little more about the swin transformer? Explainer: Sure. The Swin Transformer is a type of deep learning model designed to analyze images, which works by dividing the image into small parts and paying selective attention to each part, thereby allowing it to handle high-quality, detailed images more efficiently. Explainer: swin transformer performs well on image-related tasks, like the image classification here. Seeker: is it right to say that the Grad-CAM method is more of a visualization method for the data processing by the Swin Transformer? Explainer: Yes. The grad-CAM method visualized how the Swin Transformer makes a prediction of an image. Seeker: can you explain the following sentence in simpler terms? \"This heatmap is generated by weighting the activations of the final convolutional layer by their corresponding gradients and averaging the resulting weights spatially.\" Explainer: The swin transformer has many neural layers, which can extract features of images. the convolutional layer is one of these neural layers. The activations of the convolutional layer contains the features for each image regions. Explainer: Grad-cam generate the second heatmap image by calculating how changes to feature of each image region would affect the model's output. Explainer: When we change a region of the image and the model's output changes a lot, this means that image region is important to the model prediction. Explainer: Bluer colors are used to represent areas of low importance, while redder colors indicate areas of high importance. Seeker: does that mean that brighter colors in the actual image equate to changes in the image region? Explainer: No. When changing images, we will equally change feature of image regions. Seeker: so how do you weight the activations of the convolutional layer? Explainer: activations of the convolutional layer contain extracted features of images. For each region of images, there are multiple features. Explainer: We will calculate how changes in each feature for each image region will affect the models prediction. Seeker: what are some features? Explainer: That's automatically learned by the classification model. Seeker: would you classify the model as a black box? Explainer: The classification model uses these features to understand the image. Explainer: Yes. Explainer: The classification model is black box model. Seeker: what are some limitations of the Grad-CAM method? Explainer: Therefore we need the explanation method, like Grad-cam here to understand how the black box model makes a prediction. Explainer: It cannot be applied to all types of deep learning models. It can only be used for deep learning models that have convolutional layers. Seeker: can you list other visualization methods? Explainer: Yes. there are other explanation methods, like, LIME, Integrated gradients, and SHAP. Seeker: why is the Grad-CAM method selected over these other explanation methods? Explainer: It's easier to understand when using it to explain the predictions of images. But we also have explanations generated by other methods. Explainer: As I can't send pictures to you, I cannot show explanations generated by other methods. Seeker: why was the swin transformer model used in this scenario over other neural models? Explainer: It performs well here. It can reach 84% accuracy in a large dataset. Seeker: Okay thank you! I think that's all the questions that I have" }

{ "output": "Explainer: The classification model will use the entire image to make a prediction. But it is very complex and we don't understand how it makes such a prediction. So we use LIME to explain which regions are most important for the classification model to make a prediction. The LIME method outputs the top-5 regions that are most important. That's why only parts of the image are shown." }

{ "input": "Explainer: hello, you can ask any questions to help you better understand the explanation on the left screen. Explainer: Simple and easy questions are also encouraged. Seeker: does this model prediction only applies to animals? Explainer: It can also classify other objects, like baby chairs or football helmet Seeker: is this like Google Lens?" }

{ "output": "Explainer: yes, the classification model here can do similar task as Google Lens But the classification model is usually very complex. It's hard to be understood by humans. We don't know how it predicts the image as a leopard. So we have the explanation method, grad-cam. It generates the second image, which tries to explain which region the classification model focuses on to make such a decision" }

Seeker: So to summarise up about the description, the grad-CAM which generates a heatmap is able to identify the image/object in the picture using deep learning model? Explainer: Not exactly. There is a deep learning model that is used to classify an image into a category. Explainer: This is the classification model. Explainer: The first image is the input of the classification model. The classification mode classifies it as a goldfish. Explainer: But the classification model is complex. We don't understand it. We don't know how it predicts the image as a goldfish. Explainer: So we use grad-cam to explain which region the classification model focuses on to make such decision Seeker: ohhhh i get it now Seeker: but the grad-CAM which generates a heatmap shows high importance (indicated in red), could be anything. how would the grad-cam be able to detect the classification model Seeker: would the grad-CAM in any sense, detect wrongly and give a wrong classification/answer? Explainer: The heatmap generated by Grad-cam is based on the classification model. Explainer: The classification model will extract some features from original images. Explainer: Then the grad-cam generates the heatmap by calculating how changes in these features will affect the classification model's prediction. Explainer: it could be possible. Seeker: so the grad-cam is not a 100% method proof right Explainer: Yes. Seeker: in that case, how would the grad-cam help to assist in like progressing of any research Explainer: Enough though it is not 100% correct, the heatmap generated by Grad-cam highly depends on the classification model. Explainer: It can help users understand why a model made a specific prediction and may increase users' trust in the classification models. Explainer: For research, it can help them debugs the model. Explainer: Like, if the classification model made a wrong decision, we may use grad-cam to observe why it made such a wrong decision, is it because it focuses on the wrong areas of images. Seeker: okay okay" }

Explainer: For the example on the left screen, the classification model, swin transformer, classifies the first image as a leopard. Seeker: why is the explanation inaccurate Explainer: LIME is a method to explain a specific prediction of a deep learning model by highlighting the most important features among input features. Seeker: what happens when there are more than 1 animal Explainer: Using the example on the left screen, the input is an image and the output is class Leopard. The highlighted part of the original image is the reason why the classification model predicts the input image into a class leopard. Explainer: Sorry, Can you specify this question? Seeker: the explanation does not highlight all the parts of the leopard, why Explainer: The classification model will have a high probability to classify the image into all animals. Explainer: When we observe how the image is classified into one animal, a good model should focus on the area of that animal. Explainer: On the other hand, when we observe how the image is classified into another animal, a good classification model should focus on the area of another animal. Seeker: can lime be used without internet Explainer: The classification model will use the entire image to make a prediction.

Some other methods are model-specific, which means they can only be applied to a certain type of deep learning model. Explainer: But LIME also has some drawbacks, e.g., it may be unstable. Also, the type of surrogate models used in the LIME method also will affect the quality of explanations.

{ "input": "Explainer: hello, you can ask any questions to help you better understand the explanation on the left screen Seeker: How does the simpler model work? Explainer: For an input data point, we can perturb around this data point and get predictions from complex classification models. Then we use these data samples to train the simple surrogate model. Therefore the simpler model can mimic the behavior of the complex model around one data point Explainer: As we understand the behavior of the simpler model, we can know the importance of each image region when the simpler model does a prediction. Seeker: What metrics do you use to measure in the model? Colours? Pixels? Explainer: Do you mean how we measure the classification model? Seeker: Yes Explainer: We measure the classification model by the accuracy of predicting correct labels. Seeker: How many images do you need in order to train a data set? Explainer: It will depend on the model size and the complexity of the task. For the image classification model here, it is trained with 1.2 million labeled images. Seeker: Is this image classification tool going to be used by someone well verse with AI and it's terms? Seeker: Because I feel that the explanation can be quite complex for someone that is not well versed in it Explainer: For the classification model, anyone can use it.
