This paper introduces T-CREx, a novel approach to counterfactual explanation (CE) for machine learning models. The method generates human-readable rules that summarize recourse options for individuals and groups, providing both global insights into model behavior and diverse explanations for users. By leveraging tree-based surrogate models and “metarules” that denote regions of optimality, T-CREx achieves superior performance over existing baselines on a range of CE metrics while being much faster to run.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
T-CREx is a new way to explain how machine learning models work. It helps people understand why the model made certain predictions and provides ways for them to change those predictions if they want to. This is done by creating simple rules that can be understood by humans, rather than just giving complex math equations.
