让时间序列模型的决策逻辑一目了然,从局部解释生成全局模式。

L2GTX: From Local to Global Time Series Explanations

  • 先局部解释再聚合,用聚类提取关键时间模式
  • 在六大数据集上生成简洁可读的全局解释,保持高可信度
  • 适合需要理解模型决策依据的研究者与工程师

深度学习模型在时间序列分类中表现优异,但理解其类别级决策行为仍具挑战。时间序列解释需尊重时序依赖性,并识别跨样本重复出现的模式。现有方法存在三大局限:图像和表格数据的模型无关XAI方法难以直接应用于时间序列;时间序列的全局解释合成研究不足;多数现有全局方法为模型特定。本文提出L2GTX,一种模型无关框架,通过代表性样本的局部解释聚合生成类别级全局解释。L2GTX从LOMATCE生成的实例级解释中提取参数化时间事件原型(如上升/下降趋势、局部极值)及其重要性得分,聚类后合并以减少冗余,并利用实例-簇重要性矩阵估算全局相关性。在用户定义的实例选择预算下,选取覆盖关键簇最广的代表性实例。最终将选定实例中的事件聚合为简洁的类别级全局解释。在六个基准时间序列数据集上的实验表明,L2GTX生成的全局解释紧凑且可读,同时保持稳定的全局忠实性(以平均局部代理拟合度衡量)。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Deep learning models achieve high accuracy in time series classification, yet understanding their class-level decision behaviour remains challenging. Explanations for time series must respect temporal dependencies and identify patterns that recur across instances. Existing approaches face three limitations: model-agnostic XAI methods developed for images and tabular data do not readily extend to time series, global explanation synthesis for time series remains underexplored, and most existing global approaches are model-specific. We propose L2GTX, a model-agnostic framework that generates class-wise global explanations by aggregating local explanations from a representative set of instances. L2GTX extracts clusters of parameterised temporal event primitives, such as increasing or decreasing trends and local extrema, together with their importance scores from instance-level explanations produced by LOMATCE. These clusters are merged across instances to reduce redundancy, and an instance-cluster importance matrix is used to estimate global relevance. Under a user-defined instance selection budget, L2GTX selects representative instances that maximise coverage of influential clusters. Events from the selected instances are then aggregated into concise class-wise global explanations. Experiments on six benchmark time series datasets show that L2GTX produces compact and interpretable global explanations while maintaining stable global faithfulness measured as mean local surrogate fidelity.
