This paper addresses a major challenge in Explainable AI (XAI) for text summarization: the disagreement problem. Different XAI methods generate contradictory explanations for the same input article, hindering reliability and interpretability. The authors propose a novel approach using sentence transformers and k-means clustering to segment the input article and generate regional explanations. This method reduces observed disagreement between XAI methods when evaluated on two news summarization datasets: XSum and CNN-DailyMail. Experimental results validate this hypothesis, showing a significant decrease in disagreement among different XAI methods. Additionally, a JavaScript visualization tool is developed to interactively explore attribution scores for each sentence.

This paper helps solve a problem with AI that explains how it summarizes text. Right now, different ways of explaining how AI does this disagree on what the summary means. To fix this, the authors came up with a new idea. They split the original article into smaller parts and explain each part separately. This makes different AI methods agree more often when they summarize the same text.
