The proposed framework, CFGs (CounterFactual Generation with s(CASP)), is a machine learning model that generates counterfactual explanations for automated decision-making systems. This framework uses a goal-directed Answer Set Programming (ASP) system, s(CASP), to automatically produce explanations from rule-based machine learning algorithms. The authors benchmark their proposal using the FOLD-SE model and demonstrate how CFGs navigates between different hypothetical scenarios, considering causal relationships among features.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
This paper presents a new approach to explaining decisions made by automated systems. It creates “counterfactual” examples that show why a decision was made, and how things could have been different if certain factors had changed. The authors develop a special computer program called s(CASP) that helps them generate these explanations. They test their idea using a specific type of machine learning model and show how it works.
