A novel explainability technique called Derivative-Free Diffusion Manifold-Constrainted Gradients (FreeMCG) is introduced to overcome shortcomings of gradient-based methods for image-based models. Traditional gradient-based methods require white-box access, are vulnerable to attacks, and produce attributions that lie off the image manifold. FreeMCG leverages ensemble Kalman filters and diffusion models to derive a derivative-free approximation of the model’s gradient projected onto the data manifold, requiring only output access. The method is demonstrated on counterfactual generation and feature attribution tasks, achieving state-of-the-art results while preserving essential XAI properties.

Imagine you want to understand how a computer program works or why it made a certain decision. This paper creates a new way to do that for images using neural networks. Right now, there are problems with existing methods because they require too much information and can be tricked by fake data. The new method, called FreeMCG, is better because it doesn’t need all the extra information and produces explanations that are more like what humans understand.
