What changed
Introduces model-parameter and data-label randomization tests for explanation methods, revealing that some visually persuasive saliency procedures can ignore learned model or label structure.
Scientific scope
Introduces model-parameter and data-label randomization tests for explanation methods, revealing that some visually persuasive saliency procedures can ignore learned model or label structure. Sensitivity to these tests is a necessary task-dependent diagnostic, not sufficient proof of explanation correctness. Invariance findings are scoped to tested methods, metrics and architectures; signed and absolute visualizations can behave differently. Star denotes Google residency, not equal contribution.
