This paper proposes an interactive approach to generating counterfactual explanations for univariate time series data in classification tasks. The methodology leverages 2D projections and decision boundary maps to enhance transparency and understanding of deep learning models’ decision processes. By enabling users to interactively manipulate projected data points, the approach provides intuitive insights through inverse projection techniques. This facilitates a more straightforward exploration of univariate time series data, allowing users to comprehend potential outcomes of hypothetical scenarios. The method is validated using the ECG5000 benchmark dataset, demonstrating significant improvements in interpretability and user understanding. The results indicate a promising direction for enhancing explainable AI, with potential applications in various domains requiring transparent and interpretable deep learning models.

This paper helps us understand how to make machines that can learn like humans better. It’s about making sure we know why these machines are making certain decisions. To do this, the researchers created a way to look at time series data, which is like looking at how something changes over time. They used a special kind of map to help people understand what’s happening. This makes it easier for us to see why the machine is making certain decisions and helps us make better decisions in the future.
