Learn to Rank: Visual Attribution by Learning Importance Ranking

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2604.05819v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Interpreting the decisions of complex computer vision models is crucial to establish trust and accountability, especially in safety-critical domains. An established approach to interpretability is generating visual attribution maps that highlight regions of the input most relevant to the model's prediction. However, existing methods face a three-way trade-off. Propagation-based approaches are efficient, but they can be biased and architecture-specific. Meanwhile, perturbation-based methods are causally grounded, yet they are expensive and for vision transformers often yield coarse, patch-level explanations. Learning-based explainers are fast but usually optimize surrogate objectives or distill from heuristic teachers. We propose a l
