METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING EXPLANATION OF PREDICTION GENERATED BY AN ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK MODEL

Abstract:

This disclosure relates to method and system for providing an explanation for a prediction generated by an artificial neural network (ANN) model for a given input data. The method may include receiving the given input data and the prediction generated by the ANN model. The ANN model may be built and trained for a target application. The method may further include determining a plurality of relevant portions of the given input data. For each of the plurality of relevant portions, the method may further include fetching a portional prediction and a portional prediction score generated by the ANN model, and determining a degree of influence score based on the portional prediction score and a comparison between the portional prediction and the prediction. The method may further include providing the explanation for the prediction based on the degree of influence score of each of the plurality of relevant portions.
