SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR COUNTERFACTUAL EXPLANATION IN MACHINE LEARNING MODELS

摘要

Embodiments described herein provide a two-stage model-agnostic approach for generating counterfactual explanation via counterfactual feature selection and counterfactual feature optimization. Given a query instance, counterfactual feature selection picks a subset of feature columns and values that can potentially change the prediction and then counterfactual feature optimization determines the best feature value for the selected feature as a counterfactual example.
