Researchers propose new metrics to evaluate AI explainability methods

Researchers have developed a new method to evaluate explainability techniques for Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), addressing the lack of robust metrics beyond Intersection over Union (IoU). The study proposes using distance metrics to compare saliency maps generated by explainability methods against human annotations and crowdsourced preferences. Experiments on the ImageNet Chihuahuas dataset indicate that Manhattan and Correlation metrics best align with human perception, identifying LayerCAM, Score-CAM, and IS-CAM as superior explainability methods.
