Description
Résumé:Deep learning (DL) models have shown performance benefits across many applications, from classification to image-to-image translation. However, low interpretability often leads to unexpected model behavior once deployed in the real world. Usually, this unexpected behavior is because the training data domain does not reflect the deployment data domain. Identifying a model's breaking points under input conditions and domain shifts, i.e., input transformations, is essential to improve models. Although visual analytics (VA) has shown promise in studying the behavior of model outputs under continually varying inputs, existing methods mainly focus on per-class or instance-level analysis. We aim to generalize beyond classification where classes do not exist and provide a global view of model behavior under co-occurring input transformations. We present a DL model-agnostic VA method (ProactiV) to help model developers proactively study output behavior under input transformations to identify and verify breaking points. ProactiV relies on a proposed input optimization method to determine the changes to a given transformed input to achieve the desired output. The data from this optimization process allows the study of global and local model behavior under input transformations at scale. Additionally, the optimization method provides insights into the input characteristics that result in desired outputs and helps recognize model biases. We highlight how ProactiV effectively supports studying model behavior with example classification and image-to-image translation tasks
