New framework DVA explains decisions from predictive models

Researchers have introduced Decision-Value Attribution (DVA), a new framework designed to explain the decisions made by predictive models in operational systems. Unlike standard methods that focus on forecast explanations, DVA attributes value directly to the decisions induced by these forecasts. This approach is crucial in predict-then-optimize systems where small forecast changes can significantly alter outcomes. DVA, based on Shapley values, defines cooperative games to quantify the value derived from information sources and operational configurations, offering insights into how these elements jointly create value and guiding interventions for improved decision-making.
