Interpreting and Explaining Deep Neural Networks: A Perspective on Time Series Data

Abstract

Explainable and interpretable machine learning models and algorithms are important topics which have received growing attention from research, application and administration. Many complex Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are often perceived as black-boxes. Researchers would like to be able to interpret what the DNN has learned in order to identify biases and failure models and improve models. In this tutorial, we will provide a comprehensive overview on methods to analyze deep neural networks and an insight how those interpretable and explainable methods help us understand time series data.
