Learning explanations that are hard to vary
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we investigate the principle that 'good explanations are hard to vary' in the context of deep learning. ...
To inspect this, we first formalize a notion of consistency for minima of the loss surface, which measures to what extent a minimum appears only when examples are pooled. ...
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We wish to thank Sebastian Gomez, Luca Biggio, Julius von Kügelgen, Paolo Penna, Ioannis Anagno, Ricards Marcinkevics, Sidak Pal Singh, Damien Teney for feedback on the manuscript, and ...

Applying Deutsch's concept of good explanations to artificial intelligence and neuroscience – an initial exploration
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
We explore what role hard-to-vary explanations play in intelligence by looking at the human brain and distinguish two learning systems in the brain. ...
We argue that figuring out how replicate this second system, which is capable of generating hard-to-vary explanations, is a key challenge which needs to be solved in order to realize artificial general ...

Easy-to-hard effects in perceptual learning depend upon the degree to which initial trials are "easy"

Results challenge assumptions that sequencing effects in learning are related to attentional spotlighting of task-relevant dimensions. ...

Analysis of Task Difficulty Sequences in a Simulation-Based POE Environment
[chapter]
2020
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
The findings suggest that if students perceive the TDs as easy or hard, it may lead to poorer learning outcomes, while the medium or moderate TDs may result in better learning outcomes. ...
In terms of TD transitions, difficulty level hard followed by a hard may lead to poorer learning outcomes. ...
A plausible explanation for this outcome is that students tend to engage more in the tasks that are perceived moderately difficult than the tasks that are perceived too easy or too hard [6] . ...

The easy-to-hard effect in human (Homo sapiens) and rat (Rattus norvegicus) auditory identification
2008
Journal of Comparative Psychology
The results are not predicted by an explanation that assumes interaction of generalized excitation and inhibition, but are consistent with a hierarchical account of perceptual learning in which the representational ...
These findings indicate that transitioning from an easier to a more difficult task during training can facilitate, and in some cases may be essential for, auditory perceptual learning. ...
We are also grateful to David Smith and three reviewers for helpful comments and suggestions on earlier versions of this article. ...

BAGEL: A Benchmark for Assessing Graph Neural Network Explanations
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
We are interested in a specific type of machine learning model that deals with graph data called graph neural networks. ...
Evaluating interpretability approaches for graph neural networks (GNN) specifically are known to be challenging due to the lack of a commonly accepted benchmark. ...
Though we tried our best to use datasets with varying graph properties and distributions, we believe this benchmark has a large scope to expand to multiple graph datasets with varying graph properties. ...

Evaluating the performance of the LIME and Grad-CAM explanation methods on a LEGO multi-label image classification task
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we run two methods of explanation, namely LIME and Grad-CAM, on a convolutional neural network trained to label images with the LEGO bricks that are visible in them. ...
However, we also posit that it is more useful to employ these two methods together, as the insights they yield are complementary. ...
Finally, the author expresses his gratitude to the Delft University of Technology for the opportunity to pursue this research. ...

On the Robustness of Pretraining and Self-Supervision for a Deep Learning-based Analysis of Diabetic Retinopathy
[article]

arXiv
pre-print
There is an increasing number of medical use-cases where classification algorithms based on deep neural networks reach performance levels that are competitive with human medical experts. ...
To this end, we investigate different aspects such as quantitative performance, statistics of the learned feature representations, interpretability and robustness to image distortions. ...
Other common state-of-the-art methods in machine learning are supervised-learning methods, i.e. models that are trained with labeled data, opposed to other methods that require only some or even no labeled ...

Tell me why! Explanations support learning relational and causal structure

Language can shape the way that agents to generalize out-of-distribution from ambiguous, causally-confounded training, and explanations even allow agents to learn to perform experimental interventions ...
We then show that explanations can help agents to infer not only relational but also causal structure. ...
We also do not want to imply that explanations are necessary for learning. ...
