Deep Learning and XAI Techniques for Anomaly Detection

By: Cher Simon

Overview of this book

Despite promising advances, the opaque nature of deep learning models makes it difficult to interpret them, which is a drawback in terms of their practical deployment and regulatory compliance. Deep Learning and XAI Techniques for Anomaly Detection shows you state-of-the-art methods that’ll help you to understand and address these challenges. By leveraging the Explainable AI (XAI) and deep learning techniques described in this book, you’ll discover how to successfully extract business-critical insights while ensuring fair and ethical analysis. This practical guide will provide you with tools and best practices to achieve transparency and interpretability with deep learning models, ultimately establishing trust in your anomaly detection applications. Throughout the chapters, you’ll get equipped with XAI and anomaly detection knowledge that’ll enable you to embark on a series of real-world projects. Whether you are building computer vision, natural language processing, or time series models, you’ll learn how to quantify and assess their explainability. By the end of this deep learning book, you’ll be able to build a variety of deep learning XAI models and perform validation to assess their explainability.

Explainability Evaluation Schemes

According to the World Economic Forum, https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2022/01/artificial-intelligence-ai-technology-trust-survey/, approximately 60% of adults believe artificial intelligence (AI) systems will transform their daily life. In contrast, only 50% said they trust AI technology firms. Advances in AI systems and calibrating trust require a balancing act between speed, transparency, and fairness.

Generally, Explainable AI (XAI) systems provide explainability by generating explanations for individual predicted instances or describing how a model derives a prediction. Existing XAI approaches fall into two main categories: they favor interpretable models or assess change in output through model manipulation.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), in their paper, Four Principles of Explainable Artificial Intelligence, identifies four fundamental principles for XAI systems (https://www.nist.gov/publications/four-principles...
