Enhancing the Intelligibility of Boolean Decision Trees with Concise and Reliable Probabilistic Explanations
Résumé
This work deals with explainable artificial intelligence (XAI),
specifically focusing on improving the intelligibility of decision trees through
reliable and concise probabilistic explanations. Decision trees are popular because they are considered highly interpretable. Due to cognitive
limitations, abductive explanations can be too large to be interpretable
by human users. When this happens, decision trees are far from being
easily interpretable. In this context, our goal is to enhance the intelligibility of decision trees by using probabilistic explanations. Drawing
inspiration from previous work on approximating probabilistic explanations, we propose a greedy algorithm that enables us to derive concise
and reliable probabilistic explanations for decision trees. We provide a detailed description of this algorithm and compare it to the state-of-the-art
SAT encoding, emphasizing the gains in intelligibility and highlighting
its empirical effectiveness.
