Did the Model Understand the Question?

Presentation Link

Sam Witteveen and I started the TensorFlow and Deep Learning Singapore group on MeetUp in February 2017, and the eighteenth MeetUp, aka TensorFlow and Deep Learning: Explainability and Interpretability, was again hosted by Google Singapore.

To some extent the theme of the MeetUp was set by Lee XA volunteering to talk about "Explainable AI : Shapley Values and Concept Activation Vectors", based on his experiences with Shapley values from Scott M. Lundberg NIPS 2016 paper titled "A Unified Approach to Interpreting Model Predictions" on a transfer learned model of a CNN.

Before that though, in order to set the scene, we had a talk "Explainability : An Overview" by Hardeep Arora, which looked at the explainability issue coming from the direction of 'regular' datascience.

We also had an excellent last-minute lightning talk by Timothy Liu about implementing machine CPU/GPU sharing using KubeFlow, orchestrating a collection of Docker containers delivering Jupyter.

For my part, I gave a talk titled "Did the Model Understand the Question?", which explained some of the thinking in the paper by the same title by Mudrakarta et al (2018).
