Interpretable Neural Networks with Frank-Wolfe: Sparse Relevance Maps and Relevance Orderings
Abstrakt:
We study the effects of constrained optimization formulations and Frank-Wolfe algorithms for obtaining interpretable neural network predictions. Reformulating the Rate-Distortion Explanations (RDE) method for relevance attribution as a constrained optimization problem provides precise control over the sparsity of relevance maps.

About the Co-Author
During his studies in mathematics (TU Berlin) Jan focussed on applied topics in optimization, functional analysis, and image processing. His doctoral studies (TU Berlin) explored the interplay between theoretical and empirical research on neural networks. This resulted in his PhD thesis investigating the reliability of deep learning for imaging and computer vision tasks in terms of interpretability, robustness, and accuracy. At dida he works as a Machine Learning Researcher at the interface of scientific research and software development.
