ABLE: Using Adversarial Pairs to Construct Local Models for Explaining Model Predictions

Abstract

Machine learning models are increasingly used in critical applications but are mostly "black boxes" due to their lack of transparency. Local explanation approaches, such as LIME [26], address this issue by approximating the behavior of complex models near a test instance using simple, interpretable models. However, these approaches suffer from instability and poor local fidelity. In this paper, we propose a novel approach called Adversarial Bracketed Local Explanation (ABLE) that overcomes these limitations.
