提出高效稳定的特征重要性评估方法,解决复杂数据下解释性模型的计算与稳定性难题。

Correlation-Aware Feature Attribution Based Explainable AI

  • 基于相关性感知的归因分数,通过鲁棒中心化处理特征与输出
  • 仅用部分数据即可复现全模型排名,显著降低计算开销
  • 支持特征分组归因,避免共线性导致的重复计算,适合真实场景

随着模型日益复杂及高风险应用对透明度、信任和合规性的要求提升,可解释人工智能(XAI)愈发关键。现有全局归因方法普遍存在计算成本高、在相关输入下不稳定、难以扩展至大规模或异构数据集的问题。本文提出ExCIR(通过相关性影响比实现可解释性),一种具备轻量级迁移协议的相关性感知归因分数,仅需少量数据即可复现完整模型的特征重要性排序。ExCIR通过对特征与输出进行鲁棒中心化(如减去中位数或中均值)后,量化其符号一致的共同变动关系。进一步提出 extsc{BlockCIR},作为ExCIR的分组扩展,将一组相关特征视为整体进行评分。通过在预定义或数据驱动的分组内聚合相同的符号共变项与幅度, extsc{BlockCIR}有效缓解共线性簇(如同义词或重复传感器)中的重复计数问题,在强依赖条件下获得更平滑、更稳定的排序。在文本、表格、信号与图像等多样化数据集上,ExCIR展现出与主流全局基线及全模型的一致性,跨设置保持稳定的前k名排序,并通过子集上的轻量评估大幅减少运行时间。总体而言,ExCIR提供了计算高效、结果一致且可扩展的可解释性方案,适用于真实部署。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Explainable AI (XAI) is increasingly essential as modern models become more complex and high-stakes applications demand transparency, trust, and regulatory compliance. Existing global attribution methods often incur high computational costs, lack stability under correlated inputs, and fail to scale efficiently to large or heterogeneous datasets. We address these gaps with \emph{ExCIR} (Explainability through Correlation Impact Ratio), a correlation-aware attribution score equipped with a lightweight transfer protocol that reproduces full-model rankings using only a fraction of the data. ExCIR quantifies sign-aligned co-movement between features and model outputs after \emph{robust centering} (subtracting a robust location estimate, e.g., median or mid-mean, from features and outputs). We further introduce \textsc{BlockCIR}, a \emph{groupwise} extension of ExCIR that scores \emph{sets} of correlated features as a single unit. By aggregating the same signed-co-movement numerators and magnitudes over predefined or data-driven groups, \textsc{BlockCIR} mitigates double-counting in collinear clusters (e.g., synonyms or duplicated sensors) and yields smoother, more stable rankings when strong dependencies are present. Across diverse text, tabular, signal, and image datasets, ExCIR shows trustworthy agreement with established global baselines and the full model, delivers consistent top-$k$ rankings across settings, and reduces runtime via lightweight evaluation on a subset of rows. Overall, ExCIR provides \emph{computationally efficient}, \emph{consistent}, and \emph{scalable} explainability for real-world deployment.
