Abstract
Current approaches for explaining machine learning models fall into two distinct classes: antecedent event influence and value attribution. The former leverages training instances to describe how much influence a training point exerts on a test point, while the latter attempts to attribute value to the features most pertinent to a given prediction. In this talk, I will discuss my work, AVA: Aggregate Valuation of Antecedents, that fuses these two explanation classes to form a new approach to feature attribution that not only retrieves local explanations but also captures global patterns learned by a model. We find that aggregating and weighting Shapley value explanations via AVA results in a valid Shapley value explanation. I will provide a medical use case for AVA explanations, mirroring diagnostic approaches used by healthcare professionals.
I will also discuss new heuristics and show preliminary results for aggregating local explanations from different explanation techniques using a wisdom of the crowds approach subject to a user specified criterion.
