Visualizing the Impact of Feature Attribution Baselines

Abstract

Distill articles are interactive publications and do not include traditional abstracts. This summary was written for the ML Anthology. Investigates how the choice of baseline input in integrated gradients affects feature attribution results, demonstrating that different baselines encode different assumptions about feature missingness and can significantly alter interpretations.
