New framework attributes value to decisions in predictive systems

Researchers have introduced Decision-Value Attribution (DVA), a new framework based on Shapley values 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 downstream decisions induced by these forecasts. The framework offers variants to attribute value to features, operational configurations, and the interactions between information and design parameters. Case studies in electricity storage and emergency medical services demonstrate that DVA can provide more accurate insights into operational value than predictive explanations alone, guiding interventions and clarifying when predictive information is relevant to decision-making. AI

IMPACT This framework could improve the interpretability and effectiveness of AI systems used in operational decision-making.

    Decision-Value Attribution in Predict-then-Optimize Systems

    Predictive models are increasingly embedded in operational decision-making, yet standard explanation methods typically explain forecasts rather than the decisions those forecasts induce. This distinction is important in predict-then-optimize systems: large forecast changes may le…
